Abstract :
The Interactive Multimedia Intelligent Tutoring System (IMITS) project is a feasibility study that integrates interactive multimedia with expert system technology. It is a test bed to show that these two complementary technologies may be combined successfully to form a framework useful for any educational material. It combines several commercially available packages and establishes dynamic communications among these packages. This paper describes one aspect of IMITS, the learning mechanism that is controlled by the expert system and that attempts to assist the student learn the material and concepts presented
