Abstract

Current intelligent tutoring systems are focused on the learning process of students without taking into account interactions with the rest of their classmates, i.e., considering each student as an isolated individual. This paper proposes a new approach, called Intelligent Tutoring of Virtual Learning Communities (ITVLC), able to enhance the learning process from both individual and collaborative perspectives. This goal is achieved by (1) analyzing the connections that every student has with the rest of their peers, (2) taking benefit from the tools provided by collaborative learning methods, (3) exploiting the Web 2.0 concept, and (4) using different artificial intelligence techniques.
