Artificial Intelligence and Tutoring Systems: Computational and Cognitive Approaches to the Communication of Knowledge

Description

Artificial Intelligence and Tutoring Systems: Computational and Cognitive Approaches to the Communication of Knowledge focuses on the cognitive approaches, methodologies, principles, and concepts involved in the communication of knowledge. The publication first elaborates on knowledge communication systems, basic issues, and tutorial dialogues. Concerns cover natural reasoning and tutorial dialogues, shift from local strategies to multiple mental models, domain knowledge, pedagogical knowledge, implicit versus explicit encoding of knowledge, knowledge communication, and practical and t.;Front Cover; Artificial Intelligence and Tutoring Systems: Computational and Cognitive Approaches to the Communication of Knowledge; Copyright Page; Table of Contents; Foreword; Acknowledgments; Part I: A first glance: introducing the field; Chapter 1.
