(1997) SQL-Tutor: a preliminary report..http://hdl.handle.net/10092/2994TR-COSC 08/97Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS) are computer systems which provide students with learning environments adapted to their knowledge and learning capabilities. This paper presents SQL-Tutor, an ITS for SQL programming. SQL, the dominant database language, is a simple and highly structured language; yet, students have many difficulties learning it. SQL-Tutor is designed as a guided discovery learning environment which helps students in overcoming these difficulties. We present design issues and the current state in the implementation of the system, with special focus on individualization of instruction towards a particular student.enReportsFields of Research::280000 Information, Computing and Communication Sciences::280100 Information Systems::280104 Computer-human interactionFields of Research::330000 Education::330100 Education Studies::330107 Educational technology and media
