Intelligent tutoring systems
TLDR
Computer tutors based on a set of pedagogical principles derived from the ACT theory of cognition have been developed for teaching students to do proofs in geometry and to write computer programs in the language LISP.Abstract:
Cognitive psychology, artificial intelligence, and computer technology have advanced to the point where it is feasible to build computer systems that are as effective as intelligent human tutors Computer tutors based on a set of pedagogical principles derived from the ACT theory of cognition have been developed for teaching students to do proofs in geometry and to write computer programs in the language LISPread more

The Influence of Emotion on Keyboard Typing: An Experimental Study Using Auditory Stimuli.
TL;DR: The findings support the conclusion that the keystroke duration and latency are influenced by arousal, and suggest that the accuracy rate of emotion recognition technology could be further improved if personalized models are utilized.

Not all wizards are from Oz: Iterative design of intelligent learning environments by communication capacity tapering
TL;DR: The approach is referred to as 'tapering' of the communication capacity of carefully engineered didactical situations and its application is presented, and a case study from the work with an exploratory environment is presented.

How Tutors Model Students: A Study of Personal Constructs in Adaptive Tutoring
Sharon J. Derry,Michael K. Potts +1 more
TL;DR: The authors investigated five experienced tutors' personal constructs about students tutored over a significant period of time and found that tutors judged and classified students in terms of two underlying dimensions that were similarly defined, though not exactly alike, across tutors.

A spreading-activation theory of semantic processing
TL;DR: The present paper shows how the extended theory can account for results of several production experiments by Loftus, Juola and Atkinson's multiple-category experiment, Conrad's sentence-verification experiments, and several categorization experiments on the effect of semantic relatedness and typicality by Holyoak and Glass, Rips, Shoben, and Smith, and Rosch.

The Architecture of Cognition
TL;DR: Adaptive Control of Thought (ACT*) as mentioned in this paper is a theory of the basic principles of operation built into the cognitive system and is the main focus of Anderson's theory of cognitive architecture.
