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

Modeling the Domain: An Introduction to the Expert Module
TL;DR: This introductory chapter first presents and discusses the epistemological issue associated with domain knowledge engineering, and briefly presents several knowledge representation languages while considering their expressivity, inferential power, cognitive plausibility and pedagogical emphasis.
Data mining for a web-based educational system
TL;DR: A general formulation of contrast rules as well as a framework for finding interesting association rules within a web-based educational system are proposed, which can improve the online educational systems for both teachers and students—allowing for more accurate assessment and more effective evaluation of the learning process.
Future challenges in intelligent tutoring systems: a framework
TL;DR: This paper aims to establish some characteristics, properties and functions that an ITS should provide, and the possible contributions that the different fields of research can make, proposing a multi-domain and multidisciplinary framework to address the research in this field.

Uses of ITS: Which Role for the Teacher?
TL;DR: The role of the context around the learner when using an ITS facing the problem of integration of ITS in their context of uses is examined and some needs which are generally ignored when designing ITS are explored.

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.

Protocol Analysis: Verbal Reports as Data.
TL;DR: This article reviewed major advances in verbal reports over the past decade, including new evidence on how giving verbal reports affects subjects' cognitive processes, and on the validity and completeness of such reports.
