In order to develop an intelligent tutoring system to improve science learning, it is necessary to collect and annotate a significant amount of data during dialogs between human tutors and students. BLT hired an expert team of project tutors to collect the audio and video data  necessary to develop an initial tutoring system that can be tested and refined in Wizard of Oz (WoZ)  experiments.  Each project tutor is either a former science teacher or a science graduate student at the University of Colorado specializing in science education.  All tutors are trained in the FOSS modules and the Questioning the Author (QtA) approach to individualized tutoring.  The tutors used these techniques to develop and refine tutor dialogs and implement them into the data collection process.   

 

Brief bios of the project tutors are listed below.
