چکیده
Socratic dialogues has been widely uses as a way of implement an ITS. The idea behind it is that the teaching and learning process should be based upon a personal reflection that can be obtained posing the right question on a guided dialogue. This methodology assumes that the knowledge acquisition is a discovering process in which both the teacher and the student plays an active role. This tutorial strategy has been developed as a part of a web based ITS architecture for declarative domains and it has been applied to the botanical domain. In this paper we describe this component, the knowledge representation that support it and the web interface used

We hypothesized that didactic tutoring would be mostly tutor-initiative while Socratic tutoring would be mixedinitiative, and that more student initiative would lead to more learning (i.e., task succ...
متن کاملTime to completion reveals problem-solving transfer
Two equally skilled groups of students taking introductory mechanics solve related physics problem pairs in reverse order with respect to each other, using the web-based Socratic tutor, MasteringPhysics. In tutorial problems containing help in the form of requestable hints, descriptive text, and feedback, twice as many students were able to complete problems correctly in real-time compared to p...
متن کاملData from a Web-based Homework Tutor can predict Student’s Final Exam Score
We discuss new measures in assessing the skill level of students based on their interactions with the Socratic homework tutor, MasteringPhysics. We show that the measurement of the difficulty of problems for a given student as determined by the time to first correct response, the number of incorrect responses without advice, and hints have high reliability (96%). As an immediate application, we...
متن کاملSocratic Trees
We consider the method of Socratic proofs (SP-method). SP-method enables a formal explication of the idea of solving logical problems (i.e problems of entailment/ derivability/ theoremhood) by pure questioning, that is, by transforming the relevant initial question into consecutive questions without making any use of answers to the questions just transformed. Our aim is to give a method of tran...

Introduction: In recent decades, a variety of teaching methods has been offered for teaching different fields of science, but the old method of questions and answer is still popular and in use. This teaching method, generally applicable to small groups, is based on questioning and finding answers by students which can increase active learning. This study evaluated students' viewpoints toward cl...
