Ruyle, Kim E. – Industrial Education, 1986
Explores an artificial intelligence expert system authoring tool called EXSYS. Describes the system, which consists of an instruction manual and several floppy disks containing a rule editor for creating, editing, and experimenting with an expert system, a runtime program for running any existing EXSYS expert system, and several tutorial and…

Norman, Donald A. – 1979
The studies summarized in this report on instructional theory and computer based tutorial systems were directed at two aspects of the study of learning and instruction: the theoretical understanding of human memory and the development of intelligent interactive computer systems for instruction. Two major computer-based tutorial systems developed…

Grignetti, Mario C.; And Others – 1974
NLS-SCHOLAR is a prototype system that uses artificial intelligence techniques to teach computer-naive people how to use a powerful and complex text editor. It represents a new type of computer-assisted instruction (CAI) system that integrates systematic teaching with actual practice; i.e., one which can keep the user under tutorial supervision…

Adams, Dennis M.; Hamm, Mary – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 1988
Surveys the current status of artificial intelligence (AI) technology. Discusses intelligent tutoring systems, robotics, and applications for educators. Likens the status of AI at present to that of aviation in the very early 1900s. States that educators need to be involved in future debates concerning AI. (CW)
