Abstract :
This paper discusses the Bettypsilas Brain system and our ongoing work on developing a suite of tools that assist students and teachers in classroom learning in science domains. We describe the design and implementation of the system using a client/server architecture, and the initial responses of the teachers to the tools we have developed. Future enhancements and additions to the suite of tools are discussed.
