Abstract
This article describes an architecture for an intelligent computer-assisted instruction (ICAI) system for use in engineering domains. A qualitative model is utilized for representing the physical characteristics and operating methodologies of the systems tutored; planning techniques are employed for instruction using a text-based tutor; reasoning about the engineering model and about the student behavior during instruction is accomplished using a production system. Examples are drawn from two specific implementations: tutorials about (1) a hot water heater and (2) a power distribution system. Specific recommendations are given for implementing ICAI systems in engineering domains.
