  abstract = {The goal of the Atlas project has been to provide opportunities for students to construct their own knowledge and to learn actively by conversing with a natural language-based ITS. We report the results of an evaluation comparing student learning of basic qualitative physics concepts when they engage in natural language dialog,
specically in Knowledge Construction Dialogs (KCDs), with student learning when they simply read about the physics concepts in minilessons. A 2-tailed paired t-test
computed over all matched pairs in our student population demonstrates a trend in favor of KCDs with students who had no previous college level physics courses.},

  abstract = {Human one-to-one tutoring has been shown to be a very effective form of instruction. Three contrasting hypotheses, a tutor-centered one, a student-centered one, and an interactive one could all potentially explain the effectiveness of tutoring. To test these hypotheses, analyses focused not only on the effectiveness of the tutors' moves, but also on the effectiveness of the students' construction on learning, as well as their interaction. The interaction hypothesis is further tested in the second study by manipulating the kind of tutoring tactics tutors were permitted to use. In order to promote a more interactive style of dialogue, rather than a didactic style, tutors were suppressed from giving explanations and feedback. Instead, tutors were encouraged to prompt the students. Surprisingly, students learned just as effectively even when tutors were suppressed from giving explanations and feedback. Their learning in the interactive style of tutoring is attributed to construction from deeper and a greater amount of scaffolding episodes, as well as their greater effort to take control of their own learning by reading more. What they learned from reading was limited, however, by their reading abilities. (C) 2001 Cognitive Science Society, Inc. All rights reserved.},
