ABSTRACT
The standard paradigm of an intelligent tutoring system (ITS) affords one-on-one learning between a student and a computer tutor. My work shifts this paradigm to accommodate multiple-student computer-mediated learning. The work is grounded in Computer Supported Collaborative Learning, ITS, and the emerging computing industry standard of peer programming. My current research is motivated by my personal experience as an underrepresented student in the field with a strong desire to be connected to others as I learn Computer Science (CS). CS is a discipline not known for collaborative exercises at the introductory level, however, there are promising opportunities for advancement.
