CONT

Intelligent Computer-Assisted Instruction(ICAI)... encompasses two primary areas. One is instructional programs that model the learner... These programs collect detailed data about the student's work and formulate a hypothesis about what the student knows and is thinking.... The other area is the use of expert systems... that contain all known information on a particular topic, a set of logic that ties all this information together..., and in some cases a program that allows a person to converse easily and in natural language with the computer.

CONT

The components of an ICAI program are problem-solving expertise, student model, and tutoring module.

OBS

For historical reasons, much of the research in the field of educational software involving artificial intelligence has been conducted under the name of "ICAI."

Most recently, "ICAI" has often been replaced by the acronym "ITS," for "Intelligent Tutoring Systems"....
