Direct linkFang, Ying; Lippert, Anne; Cai, Zhiqiang; Chen, Su; Frijters, Jan C.; Greenberg, Daphne; Graesser, Arthur C. – International Journal of Artificial Intelligence in Education, 2022
A common goal of Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS) is to provide learning environments that adapt to the varying abilities and characteristics of users. This type of adaptivity is possible only if the ITS has information that characterizes the learning behaviors of its users and can adjust its pedagogy accordingly. This study investigated an…

This paper describes a new automated disengagement tracking system (DTS) that detects learners' maladaptive behaviors, e.g. mind-wandering and impetuous responding, in an intelligent tutoring system (ITS), called AutoTutor. AutoTutor is a conversation-based intelligent tutoring system designed to help adult literacy learners improve their reading…

Chen, Su; Lippert, Anne; Shi, Genghu; Fang, Ying; Graesser, Arthur C. – Grantee Submission, 2018
This paper describes a novel automated disengagement tracing system (DTS) that detects mind wandering in students using AutoTutor, an Intelligent Tutoring System (ITS) with conversational agents. DTS is based on an unsupervised learning method and thus does not rely on any self-reports of disengagement. We analyzed the reading time and response…

Shi, Genghu; Lippert, Anne M.; Shubeck, Keith; Fang, Ying; Chen, Su; Pavlik, Philip, Jr.; Greenberg, Daphne; Graesser, Arthur C. – Grantee Submission, 2018
Reading comprehension is often assessed by having students read passages and administering a test that assesses their understanding of the text. Shorter assessments may fail to give a full picture of comprehension ability while more thorough ones can be time consuming and costly. This study used data from a conversational intelligent tutoring…

A common goal of Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS) is to provide learning environments that adapt to the varying abilities and characteristics of users. To do this, researchers must identify the learning patterns exhibited by those interacting with the system. In the present work, we use clustering analysis to capture learning patterns in over…

Diagnosing Reading Deficiencies of Adults with Low Literacy Skills in an Intelligent Tutoring System
Shi, Genghu; Hampton, Andrew J.; Chen, Su; Fang, Ying; Graesser, Arthur C. – Grantee Submission, 2018
We developed a version of AutoTutor that helps struggling adult learners improve their comprehension strategies through conversational agents. We hypothesized that the accuracy and time to answer questions during the conversation could be diagnostic of their mastery of different reading comprehension components: words, textbase, situation model,…
