Intelligent Tutoring Systems for Continuous, Embedded Assessment
نویسنده
چکیده
This chapter describes how intelligent tutoring systems (ITS) can be used for assessment. It begins by describing intelligent tutoring systems and distinguishing them from an older, more widely available technology. It argues that this newer technology has some intrinsic benefits as a tool for assessment. It then describes a particular type of assessment widely used in the ITS community. The assessment technique is based on a mathematically sound inference method, Bayesian belief networks. The basic technique, an adaptation of Knowledge Tracing (Corbett & Anderson, 1995), is described along with several recent extensions.

Embedded On-Line Assessment for Intelligent Tutoring Systems
A great deal of data show that diagnostically-tailored instruction is superior to untailored instruction. Thus, an important way in which automated instructional systems differ is in the degree to which their instruction is modified by an inferred model of the student’s internal representation of the subject matter. Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS), the newest generation of automated instruct...

Knowledge societies also named learning social networks allow interaction and collaboration between individuals (instructors and students), who share their connections under a scheme of learning communities around common learning interest. In this paper, we present an affective tutoring system inside a knowledge society implemented in a learning social network. We have designed a new architectu...

Models of self-regulated learning (SRL) describe the complex and dynamic interplay of learners’ cognitions, motivations, and behaviors when engaged in a learning activity. Recently, researchers have begun to use fine-grained behavioral data such as think aloud protocols and logfile data from educational software to test hypotheses regarding the cognitive and metacognitive processes underlying S...
متن کاملAn initial framework of contexts for designing usable intelligent tutoring systems
The notion of context has been an issue of research in various aspects of intelligent systems such as knowledge management, natural language processing, reasoning and so on. This paper focuses on the various contexts surrounding the design and use of Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS) and proposes an initial framework of contexts by classifying them into three major groupings: interactional, en...
متن کاملMIPITS and IKAS – Two Steps towards Truly Intelligent Tutoring System Based on Integration of Knowledge Management and Multiagent Techniques
During the last decades modern information and telecommunication technologies which enable student-centered and one-to-one learning are widely used. The concept of intelligent tutoring systems (ITS) emerged and many systems are developed to add adaptivity and intelligence to traditional distance learning systems. The common architecture of ITSs is overviewed. The conceptual framework based on i...
