Integrating sophisticated domain-independent pedagogical behaviors in an ITS framework

Abstract

ITS authoring frameworks are useful to reduce the efforts needed to create tutors, but the resulting tutors are usually more limited than domain-specific ones. The sophistication of the pedagogical behaviors they can produce depends on the knowledge components available to model a task domain. In this paper, we present research focused on integrating sophisticated domain-independent pedagogical behaviors in an ITS framework. © 2010 Springer-Verlag.
