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

Using Word-level Pitch Features to Better Predict Student Emotions during Spoken Tutoring Dialogues
Mihai Rotaru,Diane J. Litman +1 more
TL;DR: A first comparison of the two levels for the task of predicting student emotions in twocorpora of spoken tutoring dialogues, finding that the advantage of word-level features lies in a betterprediction of longer turns.
Leaner Model Ontology and leaner Model Agent
Weiqin Chen,Riichiro Mizoguchi +1 more
TL;DR: The goal of the research presented in this paper is to exemplify the benefit of the learner model ontology through the development of an ontology-based learNER model agent and the exchange of information between the learners and other agents.

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.
