Conversation Rebuilding: From the Foreign Language Classroom to Implementation in an Intelligent Tutoring System.
Micarelli, Alessandro; Boylan, Patrick
Computers & Education, v29 n4 p163-80 Dec 1997

This article examines how this technique can be implemented in intelligent tutoring systems (ITS) and describes a prototype ITS based on CR. (PEN)
