Intelligent Tutoring Systems

📖 The Scoop

Welcome to the proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Intelligent Tutoring Systems! In keeping with the rich tradition of the ITS conferences, ITS 2004 brought together an exciting mix of researchers from all areas of intelligent tutoring systems. A leading international forum for the dissemination of original results in the design, implementation, and evaluation of ITSs, the conference drew researchers from a broad spectrum of disciplines ranging from artificial intelligence and cognitive science to pedagogy and educational psychology. Beginning with the first ITS conference in 1988, the gathering has developed a reputation as an outstanding venue for AI-based learning environments. Following on the great success of the first meeting, subsequent conferences have been held in 1992, 1996, 1998, 2000, and 2002. The conference has consistently created a vibrant convocation of scientists, developers, and practitioners from all areas of the field. Reflecting the growing international involvement in the field, ITS 2004 was hosted in Brazil. The previous conferences were convened in Canada, the USA, and Europe. We are grateful to the Brazilian ITS community for organizing the first ITS conference in Latin America--in Maceiþ o, Alagoas. With its coconut palm-lined beaches and warm, crystal-clear waters, Maceiþ o, the capital city of the state of Alagoas, is fittingly known as "The Water Paradise." The conference was held at the Ritz Lagoa da Anta Hotel, which is by Lagoa da Anta Beach and close to many of the city's beautiful sights
