THE DEVELOPMENT OF A COMPUTERIZED INTERACTIVE TEACHING ASSISTANT IN PHYSICS: THE CITA ON CHIP PROJECT

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

One of the many roles of university instructors is to provide help to students throughout the semester - especially in the form of feedback on homework. Personalized feedback from the instructor might be possible in a small classroom setting, but becomes unmanageable when class sizes grow to dozens or even hundreds of students. As a result, universities are turning to computerized homework systems that guide students through problems and provide focused grades and feedback.
