Abstract

A student user of a client computer system uses a teaching process to promote development of cognitive skills of the student, and a supervisor uses a second client computer to remotely monitor the progress of the student. The teaching process presents various types of stimuli to the student and records student response data which correspond to the stimuli. In addition, the teaching process forms evaluation data from the student response data where the evaluation data represents a correlation between the student response data for respective stimuli and predetermined correct response data for respective stimuli. Furthermore, the teaching process modifies its own behavior according to the evaluation data to thereby tailor the behavior of the teaching process to the cognitive abilities of the student. The student response data is uploaded to a global student database which is accessible to a supervisor user. The supervisor requests student response data from the global student database and presents the student response data to the supervisor for analysis. The supervisor can use such analysis in direct consultation with the student at a later date or can recommend changes in the behavio…
