Description

This course addresses the use of artificial intelligence to create computer-based intelligent tutoring systems.

This course addresses the use of Artificial Intelligence to create computer-based Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITSs). Students will learn theoretical and data-driven methods for creating ITSs. ITSs have been demonstrated to dramatically enhance student learning in many domains, including, to name a few, mathematics, computer science, medicine, biology and engineering. In addition to discussion and readings about methods and models of problem solving, learning, and tutor design, the course will have a "learning by doing" component.

Learning Outcomes

  • After successful completion of this course, students will be able to:
  • understand key ideas in the area of Artificial Intelligence in Education
  • understand the basics of psychology of learning
  • critically assess approaches to student modelling in ITSs
  • develop constraints and production rules for use in ITSs
  • develop small-scale constraint-based tutors
  • understand current research topics in the area of Artificial Intelligence in Education
