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

An intelligent tutoring module controlled by BDI agents for an e-learning platform
TL;DR: The intelligent tutoring module of the INES (INtelligent Educational System) can be able to suggest to each student specific tasks to achieve his/her particular learning objectives, based on several parameters related to the existing learning paths and the student's profile.

Complex problem solving and intelligence: Empirical relation and causal direction
TL;DR: There exists little, if any, empirical evidence that supports a relation between explicit complex problem-solving and global intelligence, and there is also no empirical evidence indicating that global intelligence and implicit complex problem solving might be related.

Learning domain knowledge for teaching procedural skills
TL;DR: This paper describes a method for acquiring procedural knowledge for use by pedagogical agents in interactive simulation-based learning environments, inspired by human tutorial dialog, which is realized in a system called Diligent, which acquires proceduralknowledge for the STEVE animated pedag logical agent.

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.
