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.
