Scandura, Joseph M.; Novak, Elena – Technology, Instruction, Cognition and Learning, 2017
AuthorIT and TutorIT represent a fundamentally different approach to building and delivering adaptive learning systems. Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS) guide students as they solve problems. BIG DATA systems make pedagogical decisions based on average student performance. Decision making in AuthorIT and TutorIT is designed to model the human…

Du Boulay, Benedict – Technology, Instruction, Cognition and Learning, 2011
This paper describes educational systems built by members of the Human-Centred Technology Research Group at the University of Sussex that address different aspects of motivation. These systems have been described elsewhere, so this paper is essentially a drawing together of existing work. In particular, we have recently set out a view of…

Paquette, Gilbert – Technology, Instruction, Cognition and Learning, 2010
This article analyses educational modelling with the IMS-LD specification from the perspective of knowledge-based learning environments. An extension of the MOT visual language covers a wider variety of rule formats to provide control of the flow of activities in a multi-actor process-based scenario. The visual scenarios are executed by an…

Scandura, Joseph M. – Technology, Instruction, Cognition and Learning, 2011
More and more things that humans used to do can be automated on computer. In each case, complex tasks have been automated -- not to the extent that they can be done as well as humans, but better. I will draw and develop parallels to education -- showing how and why advances in the Structural Learning Theory (SLT) and the AuthorIT development and…
