Task Tutor Toolkit (T3)

Stottler Henke

A set of Java software libraries and applications to create intelligent tutoring systems without programming. Its Authoring Tool creates scenarios by demonstrating a correct solution using the simulator, generalizing the solution to recognize other valid actions, and annotating the solution to link actions with knowledge and skills. Its Tutoring System uses the solution to present context-sensitive help the student at each step. At the end of each scenario, a report card lists the knowledge and skills that the student successfully demonstrated and failed to demonstrate. An application-programming interface allows integration of its libraries with the simulator.

The Internet ITS Authoring Tool (IITSAT)

Stottler Henke

This authoring tool creates scenario-based Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS) using scenarios or problem settings to teach concepts. Students retain knowledge better when they practice their skills on simulated, realistic problems. ITS authors specify the contents of a course including the course principles, teaching methods, courseware materials and scenarios. The course contents reside on a central server governed by course management software. Using an ITS, the student works through the course contents, following the author's prescribed teaching methods. Results of testing and student status are available to the instructor.

Author and Student: Windows 98 or later, Internet web browser. Windows 2000 Server for course management software.
