Zhang, Lishan; VanLehn, Kurt – Interactive Learning Environments, 2017
The paper describes a biology tutoring system with adaptive question selection. Questions were selected for presentation to the student based on their utilities, which were estimated from the chance that the student's competence would increase if the questions were asked. Competence was represented by the probability of mastery of a set of biology…

Forbes-Riley, Kate; Litman, Diane – International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, 2013
In this paper we investigate how student disengagement relates to two performance metrics in a spoken dialog computer tutoring corpus, both when disengagement is measured through manual annotation by a trained human judge, and also when disengagement is measured through automatic annotation by the system based on a machine learning model. First,…

Matthews, Danielle E.; VanLehn, Kurt; Graesser, Arthur C.; Jackson, G. Tanner; Jordan, Pamela; Olney, Andrew; Rosa, Andrew Carolyn P. – Cognitive Science, 2007
It is often assumed that engaging in a one-on-one dialogue with a tutor is more effective than listening to a lecture or reading a text. Although earlier experiments have not always supported this hypothesis, this may be due in part to allowing the tutors to cover different content than the noninteractive instruction. In 7 experiments, we tested…
