- Description
- Special Notice 15 JUN 2011 The proposed topic will lead to new approaches for building adaptive and individualized intelligent tutors for STEM training and education that are able to: -Increase comprehension of instructional content over a fixed teaching duration and curriculum -Train to higher standards of competence (e.g., expertise), not simply enabling better recall -Accelerate the development of problem solving, reasoning, and decision-making skills The program will pursue a wide variety of approaches that address six issues that are key to developing the next generation of intelligent tutoring systems for STEM applications: 1) Designing computational cognitive models of student performance; 2) Enabling realistic and effective student - intelligent tutor interactions; 3) Creating individually-tailored instructional strategies for delivering a large corpus of course material; 4) Generalizing the underlying technologies to multiple educational domains and populations; 5) Using the most current empirical research on the science of learning pedagogical approaches ( e.g. self-explanation); and 6) Designing tools for reducing the time and expertise needed to build these tutors. White Papers are required prior to submitting a Full Proposal.
