Abstract

The student modelling module of an intelligent tutoring system represents the student's internal cognitive structures of the relevant domain. The model is important because it assists the system in providing individualised instruction based on student requirements. The use of a combination of student modelling techniques, along with the rules governing the application of the different techniques is discussed. This provides a flexible and powerful student model for a keyboard scale tutoring system.
