T1: An ACT-R Tutorial
    John Anderson, Dept. of Psychology, Carnegie Mellon Univ., USA
------------------------------------------------------------------
Abstract: ACT-R is a general architecture for doing cognitive modelling
which has been used as the basis for student models in a generation of
intelligent tutors.  The purpose of this tutorial is to provide an overview
of the ACT-R theory with an eye to enabling participants to both develop
cognitive models and understand the theoretical underpinnings of cognitive
tutors.  The tutorial will cover the basic ACT-R theory, how to use it on
the publicly distributed simulation system, and its relationship to the ACT
tutors.  This background will enable participants, if they choose, to go
through a series of publicly available "problems" that will allow them to
master the basic ACT-R features in the simulation program, which is also
publicly available.

Prequisite Knowledge:  A general familiarity with issues in cognitive
science would definitely be helpful if not absolutely necessary.  If the
participants are to then go on and use the ACT-R system, an ability in LISP
programming would again be very helpful if not necessary.

T2: Building Expert Critiquing Systems for Situated Tutoring
    and Life Long Learning
    Barry G. Silverman, Institute for Artificial Intelligence,
    George Washington Univ., USA;  E-mail: barry@seas.gwu.edu
---------------------------------------------------------------
Abstract:  Expert critiquing systems open up new opportunities for the
fields of intelligent tutoring and life long learning.  From a life long
learning perspective, embedded critics open up the prospect of the task
context automatically focussing the search and retrieval of relevant
learning materials.  That is, the critic is aware of the user's changing
tasks and work content, so (subject to user preferences) it can
automatically screen, select, and compose work-critical learning materials
from a world wide web of "learning on demand" materials.

This tutorial explores the dual tutoring/life long learning roles of
critics and how they may be implemented in previously existing automated
environments. We will survey how critics are being embedded within
environments such as word processing, hospital systems, CAD packages,
command and control workstations, software programming languages, and smart
appliances.  We will give special attention to personalised learning
environments and daily knowledge alerting systems in information highway
settings. There will be hands-on interaction with several working critics,
a life long learning library, and with an application programming shell.

Intended audience: Practitioners interested in a how-to-do-it lecture on
critiquing and life long learning approaches they can embed in environments
they are interested in. Researchers interested in improving on-demand or
situated life long learning approaches should also find the tutorial
beneficial. No previous knowledge of critics or the information highway is
required.

                         FULL DAY WORKSHOPS
                         ------------------

Wednesday, August 16th, 8:30 AM - 5 PM
--------------------------------------

If you are interested in participating in a workshop, you should send a
position paper to the Workshop Chair by May 30th, 1995 (extended deadline).
The Workshop Chairs will select people to attend and participate in the
workshops on the basis of the position papers that they submit. If you miss
the May 30th deadline and wish to attend a workshop, please contact the
AI-ED 95/AACE office to determine if space is available.

W1: Authoring Shells for Intelligent Tutoring Systems

        Phone: +44 115 951 5151 x8370; E-mail: nigel@psyc.nott.ac.uk

Organizing Committee:

Charles Bloom, Applied Research & Multimedia Services, US WEST
Technologies, USA

Abstract: As numerous research groups around the world are refining the art
of building intelligent tutors, and several have proven to be quite
effective, there is a growing consensus among researchers that more should
be available in the form of authoring tools that alleviate the need to
start from scratch with each new system. In addition, instructional
designers are in need of usable tools for rapidly prototyping sophisticated
instructional systems.  Also, educational theorists are in need of tools
for evaluating educational strategies and alternative curriculum models.
There is still a significant gap between CBT authoring tools such as
Authorware and Icon Author, which have the large and established user base,
and the research tools built in universities for constructing ITSs.  This
workshop will provide an opportunity for practitioners and researchers
doing work with ITS shells and CAI authoring tools to share their visions
and concerns regarding the next step in ITS authoring tools.  Participants
will make brief presentations, following which there will be general
discussions addressing the following issues related to ITS authoring tools:
usability, evaluation, domain independence, minimalist approaches, multiple
teaching strategies, student models.

Intended Audience: Those doing research in instructional theory who are
interested in automated instruction; those doing research with the goal of
producing general instructional systems; those interested in the evaluation
of ITS; and those applying any type of computer based instruction in a
classroom.

If you are interested in participating, please send a position paper or
inquiry by May 30th to:
        Dr. Tom Murray
        LGRC A301-A, Computer Science Dept.
        Univ. of Massachusetts
        Amherst, MA 01003, USA

Abstract: Recently, the AI-ED field has moved away from its roots in AI to
consider broader educational, psychological, and social issues.  Such
considerations should be complemented by the kind of theoretical rigour
common in other areas of applied AI.  Computational Mathetics is a term
invented to denote the study of learning and teaching using the technical,
formal concepts of AI.  The purpose of Computational Mathetics is to enable
components of AI-ED systems to be designed by analytic means (eventually).
Recent work on multi-agent systems promises a foundation for Computational
Mathetics, since AI-ED systems are essentially concerned with interactions
between various agents which may be ascribed various mental attitudes.
Other relevant areas of formal AI include belief revision, diagnosis,
dialogue, machine learning, meta-reasoning, and nonmonotonic reasoning.

The main aim of this workshop is to review the extent to which formal AI
can begin to provide an analytic basis for AI-ED systems and to identify
those areas where progress is most likely or urgent.  The workshop will be
organised as a set of sessions each with a panel discussion based on a
review paper.

The workshop is intended for those who have made, or hope to make, some
contribution to Computational Mathetics.  They would be able to relate some
area of formal AI to Computational Mathetics.  Those wishing to participate
should submit a short position paper by the May 30th to the workshop chair
outlining their experiences or views on some aspect of Computational
Mathetics.

Abstract: Techniques for the automated analysis of the semantics of
programs have a number of interesting applications within programming
education. For example, such tools could be integrated within an ITS for
programming in order to improve student modelling capabilities, or they
could be used to improve tools for the visualisation of programs, etc.

A lot of research has been done on the automation of novice program
analysis. This has resulted in a number of different approaches each with
its own vocabulary, its own knowledge representation, and its own
techniques.

The purpose of this full-day workshop is to put these different approaches
together in order to find out what they have in common and what the most
important differences are. Additionally, this should enable a proper
comparison of the strengths, weaknesses, and possible applications of each
approach.  Finally, the workshop hopes to clarify the different
vocabularies used by the different approaches.

Intended Audience: The workshop is primarily intended for people who are
active in the field of program analysis. However, people working on
programming environments and tools should also find this workshop useful.

People wanting to participate in this workshop should submit a position
paper in which they describe their own approach to novice program analysis.
This should be done using a predefined format, handling specific aspects of
their approach (purpose, terminology, knowledge representation, techniques
used, handling of erroneous programs, scalability, evaluation, flexibility,
and existing approaches).  People who have not been working on program
analysis should clarify their viewpoints on program analysis and the
possible applications.

Detailed guidelines on the format of the position paper can be obtained by
e-mail from the Workshop Chair.  Position papers should be sent to the
Workshop Chair by May 30th.

Abstract: A large part of the research on qualitative reasoning in AI
originated from efforts trying to cope with the limitations that followed
from using quantitative simulators for teaching purposes (e.g.,  SOPHIE and
STEAMER).  Nowadays qualitative reasoning is an important research area
within AI.  During the past 10 years the qualitative reasoning community
has begun to understand the crucial aspects relevant to this type of
reasoning.  Many promising results have been achieved, whereas at the same
time the limitations of the current techniques are well understood.
However, the use of qualitative reasoning techniques within interactive
(computer based) learning environments has not been given as much attention
as one would have expect ed.

In this workshop we want to focus on the use of QR techniques in
Interactive Learning Environments. People interested in participating in
this workshop should submit a 2-4 page position paper on any topic within
this theme, including (but not limited to):
  - Simulation
  - Explanation, causality, and teleology
  - Curriculum planning
  - Cognitive diagnosis and student modelling
  - (Automated) model progression
  - Authoring methodology
  - Human-computer interaction and cooperation
  - Real/practical applications

Please send three copies of your paper to one of the workshop chairs by
May 30th, at the above addresses. Accepted contributions will be included
in the Workshop Working Notes.
