Abstract
Automation of tutor modeling can contribute to scalable development and maintenance of Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS). In this paper, we are proposing a modification to the process used to build Example Tracing tutors which are a widely used tutor model. Our approach automatically uses behavior demonstrations by multiple non-experts (such as learners) to create a partially annotated generalized tutor model.
