Definition

Intelligent learning environments are based on various combinations of principles from microworlds, intelligent tutoring systems, cognitive tools and CSCL.

The term `intelligent learning environment' (ILE) refers to a category of educational software in which the learner is `put' into a problem solving situation. A learning environment is quite different from traditional courseware based on a sequence of questions, answers and feedback. The best known example of a learning environment is a flight simulator: the learner does not answer questions about how to pilot an aircraft, he learns how to behave like a "real" pilot in a rich flying context...

In summary, we use the word `intelligent learning environment' for learning environments which include

  1. a problem solving situation

and

  1. one or more agents that assist the learner in his task and monitor his learning.
