MOF-based metamodel for pedagogical strategy modeling in Intelligent Tutoring Systems

This paper introduces a MOF-based metamodel for pedagogic strategy modeling in Intelligent Tutoring Systems. The metamodel is named METAGOGIC and allows the generation of pedagogical strategies models using endogenous mapping between the abstraction layers of the MOF framework. In METAGOGIC the pedagogical strategies are represent in three main sections named Context, Pedagogical Approach and Instructional Activity. Consistency of pedagogical strategies model generated from METAGOGIC was validated using the technique of tracing. The validation result showed that the model was consistent with METAGOGIC specifications.
