Abstract

Tutoring systems to date have been focusing on learner's concept understanding from a single tutor interaction. Any assessment taken from different tutoring systems of the same domain are not considered and thus, making an overall scholastic assessment difficult to achieve. In this paper, we present our ongoing research in developing a shared learner-centered environment that profiles scholastic performance taken from different tutoring systems of the same domain - learning basic C programming. Few of the challenges we have faced were on finding appropriate structure and representation for the student model component, aligning different terms used from different tutors, their assessments about learners' scholastic performance and how it can be profiled accordingly and be used to benefit learner's concept understanding.
