Abstract
A Web-based system for training electric circuit analysis is presented in this paper. It is centered on symbolic analysis techniques and it not only verifies the student´s final answer, but it also tracks and coaches him/her through all steps of his/her reasoning path. The system mimics homework assignments, enhanced by immediate personalized feedback. Evaluation data based upon a first trial indicate that this tool is a useful complement to the traditional training approach.
