- > teaching models and systems. In particular, it will address such questions
- > as:
- >
- > What do models of human and machine learning tell us about effectively
- > structuring teaching environments in a variety of tasks and domains?
- >
- > Conversely, what does our knowledge of conditions and methods for effective
- > teaching tell us about human, and potentially machine, learning?
- >
- > What is the best role for individual examples or cases in teaching and
- > learning? When and how should general rules be given to students?
- >
- > What is the relationship between student models in teaching systems and models
- > of human and machine learning? What is the proper role of student modelling
- > in teaching?
- >
- > How can issues of motivation be addressed in teaching systems?
- >
- > What should the relative roles of content issues and architectural issues be
- > in our models of teaching and learning?
- >
- > How does technology (e.g., the use of simulation or multimedia) affect our
- > ability to construct effective teaching systems?

- > Format:

- > The workshop program will include both invited and submitted papers.
- > Presentations will be organized into a number of thematically coherent panels
