Michaud, Lisa N. and Kathleen F. McCoy (2000). Supporting Intelligent Tutoring in CALL by Modeling the User's Grammar. To appear in Proceedings of the 13th Annual International Florida Artificial Intelligence Research Symposium, Special Track on Artificial Intelligence in Instructional Software, Orlando, Florida.

ABSTRACT:

This paper presents a model for representing the proficiency of users in a CALL system by recording their performance on specific grammatical features. The model will be used both to select accurate interpretations of user-written sentences and to focus system-delivered instruction on topics at the frontier of the learner's competence.
