Designing a feedback component of an intelligent tutoring system for foreign language

摘要

In this paper, we provide a model of corrective feedback generation for an intelligent tutoring system for Spanish as a foreign language. We have studied two kind of strategies: (1) Giving-Answer Strategies (GAS), where the teacher directly gives the desired target form or indicates the location of the error and (2) Prompting-Answer Strategies (PAS), where the teacher pushes the student less directly to notice and repair their own error. Based on different experimental settings and comparisons with face-to-face tutoring mode, we propose the design of a component of effective teaching strategies into ITS for Spanish as a foreign language.
