$388,885Benefits:
The Intelligent Tutoring System architecture is general enough to model many types of domains which use an interactive simulation approach, and is suitable for stand-alone as well as embedded training systems. Additional benefits include: Training-system mobility due to embedded training capability; less expensive and less dangerous to both student and environment than working with real equipment; does not depend on availability of qualified instructors; adapts scenario generation based on student performance and diagnosis, pushing the student towards mastery; offers instant feedback on performance; enables repeated training and evaluation under identified conditions; easier to maintain, extend, and revamp for a new domain than existing Intelligent Tutoring Systems or simulators.
