DEF

[Practice] in which the [computer-based] tutor specifies the steps one at a time [while] the student executes them....

CONT

The system must be able to respond to the student, but it can also ask questions whose answers help it understand what the student is trying to do, or what he knows. In guided-discovery learning or coached activities, the student is in full control of the activity, and the only way the system can direct the course of action is by modifying the environment. This self-imposed unobtrusiveness makes the diagnostic process difficult, but the existence of an independent activity allows the coach to remain silent in case of doubt.

Subject field(s)
  • Training of Personnel

  • Artificial Intelligence
  • Education Theory and Methods
DEF

A tutoring system that provides unobtrusive assistance while the student is involved in independent learning. It does not lecture, but fosters the learning inherent in the activity, points out existing learning opportunities and transforms failures into learning experiences. It motivates learning and exercises pedagogical judgement.

CONT

A diagnostic tutor compares the student’s behavior with that of an expert for the problem domain involved. When discrepancies arise, the student is given advice about better learning or performance strategies. Diagnostic tutors are usually a more appropriate form of ICAI [intelligent computer-assisted instruction] for games, simulations, and problem-solving situations than a mixed-initiative tutor approach.

CONT

... WEST and WUSOR, two early projects concerned with the design of coaching systems.

OBS

Coaches are a variant of tutors which simply monitor a student’s problem-solving and so focus on a restricted part of the process of learning programming. Their job is to observe the way that a student tackles a problem and either comment when something seems to be going wrong, provide help when asked or ... try to constrain the student to set about the problem in a particular way.

OBS

Contrast with "mixed-initiative dialog" system and with "directive tutoring".

OBS

The Deutsches Studentenwerk-DSW-is the voluntary national association of all Studentenwerk organisations in Germany(organisations for student affairs). These organisations perform public responsibilities related to the economic, social, health-care and cultural support and promotion of students at German higher education institutions. Whereas, in Anglo-Saxon countries, these responsibilities are performed by departments which form an integral part of the respective university or college, the Studentenwerk organisations in Germany are completely autonomous and fully independent institutions which cooperate closely with the higher education institutions which they serve. Many Studentenwerk organisations are simultaneously responsible for several higher education institutions and, in some cases, for institutions at various locations. They contribute substantially to the realisation of equal opportunity. In collaboration with their higher education institutions and their towns, the Studentenwerk organisations contribute towards improving the framework conditions for higher education study and in so doing also have an important role in structuring the higher education living environment.
