Filed:

Feb 8, 1999

Appl. No.:

09/868667

Inventors:

Eric Jeffrey Lannert - Chicago IL, US
Alexander Han Leung Poon - Wolcott CT, US
Joseph Michael Ciancaglini - Greenfield WI, US

Assignee:

Accenture, LLP - Palo Alto CA

International Classification:

G06N 5/00

US Classification:

706 47, 706 45

Abstract:

A system is disclosed that provides a goal based learning system utilizing a rule based expert training system to provide a cognitive educational experience. The system provides the user with a simulated environment that presents a business opportunity to understand and solve optimally. Mistakes are noted and remedial educational material presented dynamically to build the necessary skills that a user requires for success in the business endeavor. The system utilizes an artificial intelligence engine driving individualized and dynamic feedback with synchronized video and graphics used to simulate real-world environment and interactions. Multiple “correct” answers are integrated into the learning system to allow individual learning experiences in which navigation through the system is at a pace controlled by the learner. A robust business model provides support for realistic activities and allows a user to experience real-world consequences for their actions and decisions and entails real-time decision making and synthesis of the educational material. The system characterizes a user to tailor the presentation.
