Hints\ncan serve: (1) to activate otherwise inert knowledge\nmaking possible its recall, or (2) to stimulate the\ngeneration of inferences required to complete a task\nusing knowledge thought to be available to the\nstudent. W e report on the analysis of one-on-one\ntutoring sessions conducted by two tutors using a\ncomputer system to capture the dialogue. Hints\neither expUcitly convey information to the student or\nthey point to information presumed to be available\nto the student. W e have identified at least 10\ndifferent forms of hints used by our tutors. T h e two\ntutors differ in the total n u m b e r of hints they\ngenerate and in the prevalence of hints of different types. Our results are being applied to the design\nof an intelligent tutoring system (ITS) with a natural\nlanguage interface.", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "", "short_name": "", "text": null, "url": "" }, "keywords": [], "section": "Submitted Presentations", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/9x92v40r", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Gregory", "middle_name": "D.", "last_name": "Hume", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Illinois Institute of Technology", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Allen", "middle_name": "A.", "last_name": "Rovic", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Rush Medical College", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Joel", "middle_name": "A.", "last_name": "Michael", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Rush Medical College", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Martha", "middle_name": "W.", "last_name": "Evens", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Illinois Institute of Technology", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": null, "date_accepted": null, "date_published": "1993-01-01T18:00:00Z", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "PDF", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/31713/galley/22781/download/" } ] }
