Opis

This volume includes four theses completed under the editor's direction at the Institute for the Learning Sciences at Northwestern University. This series bridges the gap between Schank's books introducing the theories behind his work in artificial intelligence (AI) and the many articles and books written by Schank and other AI researchers for their colleagues and students. The series should be of interest to graduate students in AI and professionals in other academic fields who seek the retraining necessary to join the AI effort or to understand it at the professional level.

Recenzje

"The best feature of this book is that it weaves theoretical ideas with practical applications. The systems go beyond training for procedural skills into the training of 'fuzzier' skills, such as social skills and language training in realistic contexts. Although some of the ideas may not be new, such as learning by doing, the instantiation of these ideas into case-based multimedia instructional systems demonstrates how to effectively combine and apply relevant teaching ideas."
—Applied Cognitive Psychology

"The detailed documentation of these experiments in developing complex, simulation-based learning environments should help others understand, build upon and manipulate the researchers' knowledge."
—Computers & Education
