Abstract

As an early view in my doctoral study, this paper submits a framework for evaluating intelligent tutoring systems (ITSs), embracing well-known pedagogical theories -- Cognitive Theory of Multimedia Learning and Modality Principles. What I have interested in is that these theories have been successfully applied in e-learning systems design and evaluation, but rare is found on ITSs. Hence, the study reported in this article discussed how I have formed this research question on the basis of the founding theories, and what would be accordingly planned during my future study, in the hope that this paper would raise awareness of the HCI researchers in ITS design and evaluation.
