Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺中教育大學 === 教育資訊與測驗統計研究所碩士在職專班 === 105 === This study aimed to develop a one-on-one remedial instruction for Pythagorean Theorem’s applications with the mathematics intelligent tutoring system (ITS) based on the dialogue design of AutoTutor, and assess its learning effect. In this intelligent tutoring system, the computer agent asked several questions which depended on learner’s answers, and then gave appropriate feedback on learner’s errors or guided his learning path, in order to achieving the learning effects of one-on-one interactive teaching.
Participants of the study were eighth graders in Taichung city. The students were divided into the one-on-one ITS group and the traditional instruction group. The one-on-one ITS group used the dialogue AutoTutor system for remedial instruction, whereas the traditional instruction group used traditional classroom learning for remedial instruction. The teaching materials for both groups were the same. Pre-test and post-test were conducted before and after the lessons.
The results showed that the average scores of post-test were better than the average scores of pre-test both. That was to say, there were obvious progression in the two different remedial instructions. To compare the difference of two remedial instructions, it also showed that the learning gains of one-on-one mathematics intelligent tutoring system was significant superior to those of the traditional classroom teaching. Furthermore, in one-on-one ITS group, there were significant progression regardless of ability levels or gender. In conclusion, the one-on-one intelligent tutoring system could enhance learning motivation and had more positive teaching effectiveness. Students could concentrate on learning, and got better learning gains through the one-on-one mathematics intelligent tutoring system.
