includes bibliographical reference and indexes.

The book examines three foundations of ITSs in detail -- expert, student diagnostic, and instructional or curricular knowledge -- and describes:

* How they are embodied in computer-assisted instructional environments
* How these systems accrue the advantages of advanced computer interface technologies
* How ITSs will emerge in the real world of complex problem solving
* How researchers must learn to evaluate the effectiveness and overall quality of these dynamic systems in a world where machine tutoring may one day be taken for granted.
