Stamper, John; Barnes, Tiffany; Croy, Marvin – International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, 2011
The Hint Factory is an implementation of our novel method to automatically generate hints using past student data for a logic tutor. One disadvantage of the Hint Factory is the time needed to gather enough data on new problems in order to provide hints. In this paper we describe the use of expert sample solutions to "seed" the hint generation…
