| Abstract | This paper tries to adopt intentions as an additional dynamic source of knowledge, which can be used to bias the feedback generation components of a tutoring system for foreign language learning. By doing so, it departs from the common similarity-based approach, which derives the plausibility of an error diagnosis from the effort needed to transform the student’s solution into the next best interpretation which can be established by the system. Given the limited knowledge of a tutoring system, this popular approach might lead to misguiding or even confusing explanations, especially in cases where alternative explanations would have been possible, but the system was not able to identify them properly or even needed to resort to arbitrary selections. The paper investigates two different options for integrating dynamically changing contextual expectations into the diagnostic analysis of erroneous utterances. 1 |
