Abstract

This paper describes the design and implementation of Logic-Muse, an Intelligent Tutoring System (ITS) that helps learners develop reasoning skills on various contents. The study was conducted jointly with the active participation of logicians and reasoning psychologists. Logic-Muse’s current version was internally validated. It is focused on propositional logic and supports learners reasoning in a wide range of situations.
