Biswas, Gautam; Rajendran, Ramkumar; Mohammed, Naveeduddin; Goldberg, Benjamin S.; Sottilare, Robert A.; Brawner, Keith; Hoffman, Michael – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2020
Intelligent learning environments can be designed to support the development of learners' cognitive skills, strategies, and metacognitive processes as they work on complex decision-making and problem-solving tasks. However, the complexity of the tasks may impede the progress of novice learners. Providing adaptive feedback to learners who face…

Biswas, Gautam; And Others – 1994
This report characterizes human problem solving in digital circuit design. Protocols of 11 different designers with varying degrees of training were analyzed by identifying the designers' problem solving strategies and discussing activity patterns that differentiate the designers. These methods are proposed as a tentative basis for assessing…
