Abstract

The Differential Equations Tutoring Project is studying the relatively new area of tutoring for conceptual understanding of techniques for solving differential equations and simultaneously building components of intelligent tutoring systems. Our human tutoring is machine-mediated, enabling us to both capture dialogues and to analyze how machine tutoring might work. We will then use this knowledge to build a novel computer-assist for human tutors, advancing partway into the gap between fully human and fully computerized tutoring. The two research endeavors reinforce each other, and permit us to deploy intelligent tutoring system components without needing a completed, robust machine tutor.
