| Summary: | This research proposes a framework for the behavioural model in an Intelligent
Tutoring System. This research intends to investigate the components and elements
that are part of the behavioural model. Three components were identified - the
Cognitive model, the Knowledge model, and the Psychological model. The elements
are categorized into two - Navigational and Operational behaviour. The resulting
framework will be integrated into the current Intelligent Tutoring System framework,
which typically has a User model. Expert model, Pedagogical model, and a Domain
model as its components. This research gathers extensive amount of literatures as the
source and idea of the framework designed. During data analysis, it was found that
the behavioural model exists in many researches but is implemented in different
ways. This research proposes a framework of the behavioural model that centralizes
the collection and analysis of behavioural data gathered during the user's interaction
with the system. A prototype has been built to test the soundness of the framework,
and it provided evidence that the framework is valid. Further studies should be done
to enhance the framework. It is recommended that the behaviours of user observed
should not be limited to the traditional inputs of keyboards and mice, but the fiiture
works should develop a way to observe the overall physical behaviour of the user
during the interaction with the system.
