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

A classification and synthesis of student modelling techniques in intelligent computer-assisted instruction
TL;DR: A synthesis of known techniques is proposed to obtain a model of the student's domain knowledge and a models of his individual features which can be used in a wider class of structured domains.
Journal ArticleDOI
Negotiation based adaptive learning sequences
TL;DR: A negotiation-based approach to combine the notion of adaptivity (system-controlled adaptation) and adaptability (user- controlled adaptation) for an adaptive learning system and shows that NALS promoted better metacognitions in student calibration and learning content choices.

Leveraging a domain ontology to increase the quality of feedback in an intelligent tutoring system
TL;DR: This paper provides an alternative to the traditional ITS architecture by using a hint generation strategy that bypasses the student model and instead leverages off of the domain ontology.
Book ChapterDOI
Metacognitive Models of Learning and Instructional Systems Design
TL;DR: The authors examines two currently popular models of interactive learning: the neo-Piagetian model and the Vygotskian model, which place the student in the role of cognitive apprentice, while the system becomes a cooperating, empathic mentor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Supporting Conceptual Awareness with Pedagogical Agents
TL;DR: This paper has integrated pedagogical agents within two collaborative environments, TeamWave Workplace and Future Learning Environment, which differs from past work on software agents in their function as extended awareness mechanisms, focusing on task and concept awareness (conceptual awareness).

Signal detection theory and psychophysics
David M. Green,John A. Swets +1 more
TL;DR: This book discusses statistical decision theory and sensory processes in signal detection theory and psychophysics and describes how these processes affect decision-making.
Journal ArticleDOI
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.
