Intelligent tutoring and knowledge base creation for the subject of computer programming

This paper presents a designed architecture of a practical dialogue-based tutoring system for the subject of computer programming and the knowledge base creation for the intelligent tutoring system. The tutoring system focuses on helping learners learn by solving programming exercises and it is dialogue-based since it processes the inputs which are natural language questions from learners and generate natural language explanation as response to questions from learners and explanation of solutions. In generating the explanation, the tutoring techniques as well as natural language techniques are incorporated to make the generated text cohesive and aggregated All of these methods employed are to create the intelligent system which is practical and allows for collaborative learning.
