Rivers, Kelly; Koedinger, Kenneth R. – International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, 2017
To provide personalized help to students who are working on code-writing problems, we introduce a data-driven tutoring system, ITAP (Intelligent Teaching Assistant for Programming). ITAP uses state abstraction, path construction, and state reification to automatically generate personalized hints for students, even when given states that have not…

Green, Nancy L. – International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, 2017
This paper describes an educational argument modeling system, GAIL (Genetics Argumentation Inquiry Learning). Using GAIL's graphical interface, learners can select from possible argument content elements (hypotheses, data, etc.) displayed on the screen with which to construct argument diagrams. Unlike previous systems, GAIL uses domain-independent…

Devedzic, Vladan – International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, 2016
If you ask me "Will Semantic Web 'ever' happen, in general, and specifically in education?", the best answer I can give you is "I don't know," but I know that today we are still far away from the hopes that I had when I wrote my paper "Education and The Semantic Web" (Devedzic 2004) more than 10 years ago. Much of the…

Le, Nguyen-Thinh; Menzel, Wolfgang – International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, 2009
In this paper, we introduce logic programming as a domain that exhibits some characteristics of being ill-defined. In order to diagnose student errors in such a domain, we need a means to hypothesise the student's intention, that is the strategy underlying her solution. This is achieved by weighting constraints, so that hypotheses about solution…

Suraweera, Pramuditha; Mitrovic, Antonija; Martin, Brent – International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, 2010
Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS) are effective tools for education. However, developing them is a labour-intensive and time-consuming process. A major share of the effort is devoted to acquiring the domain knowledge that underlies the system's intelligence. The goal of this research is to reduce this knowledge acquisition bottleneck and better…

Lynch, Collin; Ashley, Kevin D.; Pinkwart, Niels; Aleven, Vincent – International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, 2009
In this paper we consider prior definitions of the terms "ill-defined domain" and "ill-defined problem". We then present alternate definitions that better support research at the intersection of Artificial Intelligence and Education. In our view both problems and domains are ill-defined when essential concepts, relations, or criteria are un- or…
