Interactive Multimedia Intelligent Tutoring System (IMITS)

该项目开发了交互式多媒体智能教学系统(IMITS)。IMITS将在电气工程本科学生的定期必修课程中使用。它的目的是监控学生与多媒体学习模块的互动。IMITS将分析学生的互动，以破译学生正在学习、没有学习和学习错误的内容。当发现学习困难时，IMITS会对学生进行辅导。辅导将包括找出学生可能已经吸收的任何逻辑或程序缺陷，然后动态修改教学顺序和多媒体模块中呈现的细节数量。这些修改是为了使学生能够理解任何逻辑上的缺陷，并纠正它们，以及澄清对材料的任何误解。该项目包括三个主要任务：1)开发和整合组成交互式多媒体智能教学系统所需的组件；2)使用现有模块，并开发一套新的交互式多媒体模块用于教学系统；以及3)实施该系统，作为现有课程的一部分补充。

The proposed project develops an interactive multimedia intelligent tutoring system (IMITS). The IMITS will be used within regularly scheduled required courses for electrical engineering undergraduate students. Its purpose will be to monitor a student's interactions with multimedia learning modules. The IMITS will analyze the student's interactions to decipher what the student is learning, is not learning and is learning incorrectly. When learning difficulties are discovered the IMITS will tutor the student. The tutoring will consist of identifying any logical or procedural flaws that the student may have assimilated and then dynamically modifying both the instructional sequence and the amount of detail presented within the multimedia modules. These modifications are made so that the student may understand any logical flaws and correct them as well as clear up any misunderstanding about the material. The project consists of three major tasks: 1) to develop and integrate the components necessary to form an interactive multimedia intelligent tutoring system; 2) to use existing modules as well as develop a new set of interactive multimedia modules to be used with the tutoring system; and 3) to implement the system as a supplement to portions of existing courses.
