L'intensité de l'encadrement didactique peut varier selon le degré d'indépendance qu'on veut bien laisser à l'élève dans son cheminement à travers le didacticiel. Un encadrement fort oblige l'élève à suivre les étapes tel que prévu par l'enseignant, tandis que l'encadrement faible lui permet de choisir lui-même les étapes qu'il désire suivre.

Subject field(s)
  • Artificial Intelligence
DEF

Didactic level to be reached by tutoring, or concept teaching.

CONT

From the target level perspective, hints or pieces of advice are fundamentally different from explanations, and correction are likewise different from remediation, in that they only address behavior. Similarly, simple demonstration and traces of reasoning are restricted to exposing behavior in the domain without providing other forms of support for learning. Finally, simulations only expose the behavior of objects. Such didactic operations all require a good deal of interpretation by the student in order to be converted into useful knowledge.

  • Flight Instruments and Equipment (Aeroindustry)
DEF

The popular name for a flight deck or cockpit equipped with "head down" electronic displays usually replacing most of the conventional instrumentation.

CONT

Modern "glass cockpits" like those in the Boeing 777, the F-117 stealth fighter and Shuttle Atlantis represent a revolution in the way cockpits for aircraft and spacecraft are designed and built today. The first hints of this revolution appeared in the 1970s when flight-worthy cathode ray tube(CRT) screens began to replace a few of the electromechanical displays, gauges and instruments that had served so well for so long. These new "glass" instruments, as few and as primitive as they were, gave the cockpit a distinctly different look and suggested the name, "glass cockpit. "

OBS

Hints that animals might be sensitive to the mental states of others came from recent work on what is called the audience effect in various birds and mammals... Although animals are clearly sensitive to the presence or lack of an audience, this fact does not prove that they are also sensitive to their audience's state of mind.

  • Comportement animal
CONT

Les femelles oiseaux […] espionnent […] les compétitions vocales entre les mâles du voisinage avant de chercher, et d’obtenir, des accouplements et des fertilisations hors couples avec les vainqueurs de ces combats vocaux […] Il est intéressant de noter que la présence d’une audience composée de femelles lors d’un combat augmente la combativité des mâles, alors qu’une audience de mâles n’induit pas de modification de la combativité des mâles impliqués dans le combat […] Un tel effet d’audience suggère que les combats des mâles peuvent produire à la fois des indices et des signaux.

The Rouergue and Quercy regions both nested in the colourful Aquitaine, supply us with this small 40 gr cheese. It can be made with goat or ewes milk and sometimes with a mix of the two. The Cabecou, with its 45% of fat in it, is nonetheless called a soft cheese, covered with a thin bluey natural skin which appears only when the maturing and ventilation is carefully done. The taste is very unique and you can find some hints of nuts according to its village of origin. Its name comes from the shortened version of "small goat" in Oc, the local southern language.

The instruction model maintained by the didactic module records important aspects of the instructional interaction with the student, such as topics that have been covered or explanations that have been given. It avoids repetitions and allows reminders; it also ensures the continuity of the session in terms of instructional actions, for instance when different levels of intervention are available for the same topic, as in SOPHIE-II's explanations or WEST's hints. In general, the instruction model is more than a sequential record of activities : it contains the current goals(as in SCHOLAR's agenda), as well as active plans. Because it can record expectations generated by didactic operations, it can support the detection and repair of breakdowns in communication.

A small text window showing the tutor’s most recent response....

CONT

A separate Tutor Message Window is used to display messages from the tutor such as hints or diagnostic error messages. Thus, the student can read these messages while retaining access to the code, including the last(possibly incorrect) student input.

CONT

The student’s selection and use of plans is monitored by the system. The system may intervene if a plan is deemed inappropriate, writing a message in the "message window."

CONT

Primary text displays refer to the texts that constitute the essential instructional content. In tutorials primary text includes new information, such as definitions, descriptions, and principles, the questions asked, and feedback given after responses. In drills the primary text displays are the stimuli to which students respond and the feedback they receive. In simulations and games, the primary text includes the description of the context and the ongoing information about changes in the context. In tests the primary text displays are the test questions themselves.

OBS

Primary text displays do not include directions, help messages, hints, cues, and similar displays. These constitute secondary text displays, and they are written only after the primary text displays, upon whose content they are usually dependent.

OBS

We use the phrase "text displays" to distinguish them from graphic displays or other outputs such as computer-generated sound, even though graphics displays usually contain some text.

CONT

As an intelligent programming tutor, BIP is incomplete. The only form of advice it can give the student consists of hints stored with the different tasks, since it has no knowledge of design, coding or debugging. Furthermore, its feedback to the student is limited by its inability to diagnose logical errors. When a program has been completed, BIP simply tests it on a set of input/output pairs without any analysis of the algorithm, as do systems presented in Chapter 11. After a syntactic match on keywords has revealed the use or absence of certain constructs designated as necessary or forbidden for the task, the student is merely informed about language constructs that should or shouldn’t have been used.

DEF

A database containing diagnostic information as constraints and resources for constructing didactic operations(behavioral guidance such as problem-solving hints, advices in the form of compiled knowledge, and error correction by suggesting better solutions).

OBS

The value of diagnostic information as a resource is perhaps clearer in remedial situations, where entrapment techniques allow remediation to situate the description of errors relative to the student’s intentions. When generative information is available, constructing didactic operations on the basis of diagnostic results (i.e. generative diagnosis) becomes completely open ended. The student may even be helped to do her own blame assignment by means of an district replay of the genesis of errors in learning or problem-solving contexts.

CONT

The system can become more directive and suggest experiments according to a curriculum that organizes the domain bites. Bites for investigative behaviors monitor various skills of scientific inquiry such as the ability to collect and record data in a systematic way. At this level, the system acts as a coach, but it does not address inquiry skills directly, since these bites constitute a sort of metacurriculum. Instead, it advises the student in her investigation of the domain, employing different levels of hints as in WEST.
