The Intelligent Web-Based Tutoring System using the C++ Standard Template Library

An intelligent tutoring system (ITS) is a computer-based instructional system with models of instructional contents that specify what to teach and teaching strategies that specify how to teach. Earlier work on creating an ITS for programming focused on the teaching programming syntax as opposed to a...

T Technology (General) An intelligent tutoring system (ITS) is a computer-based instructional system with models of instructional contents that specify what to teach and teaching strategies that specify how to teach. Earlier work on creating an ITS for programming focused on the teaching programming syntax as opposed to application. The main teaching strategy is to present problem specifications for students to solve, followed by the intelligent analysis of their solutions.

It has been discovered that students find C++ STL difficult due to their weaknesses in understanding various object-oriented concepts; this understanding forms the prerequisite in learning the application of the STL. As the STL is taught at the second level of a degree course, tutors face difficulties in dealing with various levels of prerequisite skills of each student.
