Much work has been done to develop intelligent tutoring systems in domains
such as algebra, geometry, and computer programming. Our work is to develop
an intelligent tutoring system to train US soldiers. One main difference in this
domain is that one of the main skills to be learned is cooperation between
teammates, so the tutor must emphasize collaboration as a skill. In addition,
to help train this skill the system must be able to run in real-time, and provide
both computer generated teammates, as well as intelligent opposing forces. This
system is the first real-time, multi-user, model tracing tutor with simulated
teammates. The goal of this thesis is to build a prototype system to validate
that this is a valid approach for this domain.
