Abstract
Here, we present two user interfaces we developed for a tutor on debugging programs. The second interface is reified with respect to the first, and is hence, better at capturing student misconceptions and promoting the development of an accurate mental model in the learner. We discuss the rationale behind the interface, its significance, and its impact on the maintenance of the student model. We also describe the design and implementation of the reified interface.
