This workshop is being conducted under the auspices of the ITS Conference Industry Track and is focused on the design, development and applicaiton of ITS technologies. Adaptive instruction uses computers and AI to tailor training and educational experiences to the goals, learning needs, and preferences of each individual learner and team of learners. The Design, Development, and Application of Intelligent Tutoring Systems Technologies Workshop (W7) is intended to engage ITS users, researchers, and collaborators in a discussion of their applications, tools, methods, and general experiences with ITS technologies.
Final Agenda
We will be conducting the workshops on Tuesday, 12 June, at the Université du Québec à Montréal (UQAM), Sherbrooke building at 200 rue Sherbrooke Ouest, Montréal, QC H3A 1B4.
The main conference is at the La Plaza Centre De Congrès (420 rue Sherbrooke Ouest, Montréal, QC H3A 1B4). These locations are about a four minute walk from each other.
We have selected five very fine papers to highlight ITS applications.
Agenda for both workshops follows:
Tuesday morning - ITS Applications Workshop (W7) - starts at 0900 in Room 4 at UQAM.
0900-0930 - Paper: Adaptive Learning Capability: User-Centered Learning at the Next Level (Barbara Buck, Matt Genova, Brandt Dargue and Elizabeth Biddle)
0930-1000 - Paper: Developing a Large-scale Feedback System to Train Dialogue-based Tutors using Student Annotations (Cassius D'Helon, Vinay Kasireddy, Nirmal Mukhi and Jae-Wook Ahn)
1000-1030 - Paper: Technology for Revolutionary authoring of Adaptive Intelligent Tutors (TRAIT) (Perakath Benjamin, Kumar Akella and Andrew Stephenson)
1030-1100 - Coffee Break
