Abstract

NLS-SCHOLAR is an experimental system that uses Artificial Intelligence techniques to teach computer-naive people how to use the powerful and complex editor of NLS. This teaching is accomplished by presenting a sequence of lessons. During each lesson the student may interact with the system by asking and answering questions, performing tasks which are posed by the system, and performing tasks of his own choosing. Tasks are actually executed using our own implementation of NLS EDIT. Those tasks which have been posed are evaluated by the system, and the student is given encouragement, advice, and assistance.
