Mitchell, P. David; Grogono, Peter D. – Computers and Education, 1993
Discusses the relationships between knowledge structure, teachers, and learners. Implications for designing an intelligent tutoring system (ITS) are considered; and it is argued that an ITS must model the world, the learner, and teacher-learner interaction to be successful. Experiments conducted to assess the practical usefulness of several…

Vassileva, Julita – Educational and Training Technology International, 1990
Discusses the structure of intelligent tutoring systems (ITSs) and describes the development of a new structure for ITSs that is not domain dependent and is more readily adaptable by individual teachers. Pedagogical rules that help decide how much student control versus how much teacher control is present in the system are discussed. (14…

van Biljon, Judy A.; Tolmie, C. Janse; du Plessis, Johan P. – Computers & Education, 1999
Discussion of ICAE (Intelligent Computer Aided Education) systems focuses on Magix, a prototype ICAE system for use in problem-based learning in linear mathematics for 10- to 12-year olds. The system integrates the principles of constructivism, user-driven interaction, knowledge-based systems, and metacognition. (Author/LRW)

Jonassen, David H.; And Others – Journal of Computer-Based Instruction, 1993
Discusses constructivist uses of production rule expert systems that may be used to support learning for secondary and higher education. Highlights include locus of control; and objectivist and constructivist applications of expert systems as intelligent tutoring systems, as feedback systems, as personal knowledge representation tools, and for…

Woollard, Rex – Journal of Instruction Delivery Systems, 1996
Describes features of a Training Innovations computer-based training system in which guided paths can be dynamically adapted to learning style or capacity, skill or knowledge level, and cultural background. It also allows program authors to work with scripted graphics and desktop publishing tagging without extensive expertise, and even exhibits…

Theodoropoulos, Georgios; Loumos, Vassili – 1993
A hypermedia tutoring system for teaching parasitology to college students was developed using an object oriented software development tool, Knowledge Pro. The program was designed to meet four objectives: knowledge incorporation, tutoring, indexing of key words for Boolean search, and random generation of quiz questions with instant scoring. The…

Saleem, Naveed; Azad, Abbas N. – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 1992
Describes the application of expert systems to provide computer-assisted instruction support to students to facilitate their learning of both fundamental and advanced statistical concepts. Provides examples of both a modular system and an integrated system which utilize VP-Expert, an expert system development shell. (14 references) (Author)

Wilson, Eve – Computers & Education, 1994
Discusses the need to provide learner-directed computer-assisted language learning (CALL) for mature students to perfect their English. Topics addressed include expert procedural knowledge, including lexical, grammatical, and discourse skills; and expert domain knowledge, including dictionaries and thesauri, tagged corpora, and discipline-specific…
