Computer technology has brought about numerous changes in the availability of
educational media, especially the Intelligent Tutoring System (ITS). Since the development
of an ITS is such an interdisciplinary task, the instructor needs assistance in developing
these educational aides. An ITS shell, or authoring system, is the tool that will enable ITSs
to make the transition from the research arena and into the educational environment.
The conceptual model of the ITS shell proposed in this thesis uses a layered
approach to accessing the different modules of the ITS. The components, or
subcomponents, of each module consist of either existing programs, or are selectable options
developed by area experts. These options should allow the instructor to develop an ITS
concentrating on the material being presented and on the method of interaction the student
has with that material. The emphasis on the construction of these components is portability, modularity, and flexibility.
The C Language Integrated Production System (CLIPS) is used as the inferencing
and control mechanism. The design methodology proposed is the Object Oriented
Programming approach. The emphasis of this thesis is on interface tools and presentation
systems that allow for linking and integration into the ITS shell proposed.
