The underlying educational theory of this approach, often called a case-method dialogue, is that a student becomes more proficient by becoming familiar with the patterns of actual problems and by transforming specific facts into procedures for routinely solving problems. ... In particular, GUIDON's tutoring rules formalize social conventions for carrying on a case-method discussion and individual styles for sharing initiative and approaching new material.
