A model for an intelligent distance learning system: a preliminary study

This paper will focus on the use of artificial intelligence techniques in distance education where the current state of the learner is hypothesized in a knowledge base and instruction is individualized for the learner based on the knowledge learned about the learner. The proposed model consists of s...

description This paper will focus on the use of artificial intelligence techniques in distance education where the current state of the learner is hypothesized in a knowledge base and instruction is individualized for the learner based on the knowledge learned about the learner. The proposed model consists of several major activities: 1) the development of the student model where different classes of learning styles, capabilities and characters will be identified and transformed into a knowledge base representing different student model; 2) development of the motivational model where different motivational elements that can be used in a distance learning system will be identified and techniques of incorporating the elements into a module to be used by the tutor module will be configured; 3) development of the tutor model where the main inference engine of the system that includes techniques to hypothesize a student and then select a strategy for teaching, assessing, and motivating him throughout the learning process will be built; 4) design of the domain expert model consisting of a set of teaching operations and questions for a chosen subject matter; and 5) development of an intelligent distance learning system prototype based on the models designed.
