Abstract  Knowledge engineers are efficient, active Knowledge engineers are efficient, active learners. By modeling their methods for approaching new domains and acquiring the knowledge to solve routine, practical problems, we may develop a basis for teaching other students how to direct their own learning. In particular, a knowledge engineer is good at detecting gaps in a knowledge base and asking focused questions to improve an expert system's performance. This ability stems from domain-general knowledge about problem-solving procedures, how routine problem-solving knowledge is categorized, and domain and task differences. This paper studies different forms of this metaknowledge, and illustrates how it can be incorporated in an intelligent tutoring system. A model of learning is presented which describes how the knowledge engineer detects problem-solving failures and tracks them back to gaps in domain knowledge, which are then reformulated as questions to ask a teacher. We describe how this model of active learning is being developed and tested in a knowledge acquisition program for an expert system. acquisition program for an expert system.
