Abstract
We present the Beetle-Grow intelligent tutoring
system, which combines active experimentation,
self-explanation, and formative feedback using natural
language interaction. It runs in a standard web browser
and has a fresh, engaging design. The underlying back-end
system has previously been shown to be highly effective in
teaching basic electricity and electronics concepts.
Beetle-Grow has been designed to capture student
interaction and indicators of learning in a form suitable for
data mining, and to support future work on building tools
for interactive tutoring that improve after experiencing
interaction with students, as human tutors do.
