Our Explorations with CTAT! • Example-tracing Tutor (Flash) : • Mass Production (Flash) • Cognitive Tutor (Flash, Jess) Rinat Rosenberg-Kima T G Ganesh
Example Tracing Tutor (Flash) • Created a movie in Flash. • Recorded behavior in CTAT for Flash. • Published to HTML.
Mass Production (Flash) • Created input areas in Flash and corresponding variables in CTAT-Behavior Graph. Used CTAT to create problem set for mass production. Published to HTML to present problems in sequence.
Flash Interaction and CTAT • Challenges: • Only “comm elements” talk with CTAT. • Interactivity in Flash is done with other elements (like graphic buttons). • CTAT will stop the interaction once the correct answer is inserted. • Possible Solutions: • Send messages to the “comm” elements from the flash elements. • Make the interaction as an additional component.
Example-Tracing vs. Cognitive-Tutor • Example-Tracing: • Very easy to use • May be tedious • Good for non-recurrent problems. • Cognitive-Tutor: • Much (!) harder…but possible… • Extremely useful for recurrent problems • Helps in understanding the mental process of the students
