Abstract

Student models play an important part in intelligent tutoring systems. Its primary objective is to understand the student behavior, especially erroneous behavior. However, it is difficult to determine all possible errors that a student commit while solving problems for a particular domain. Thus, there is a need to extend the domain theory of the Student Modeling System (SMS). This paper discusses the design of the extension algorithm using Pascal programming as its domain.
