Abstract
An Intelligent Teaching System (ITS) integrates Artificial Intelligence (AI) to the field of education, in order to dynamically adapts to users with different background and provide optimal teaching methods. Recent advancements in intelligent tutoring have proved its effectiveness in enhancing the achievement and abilities of learners. At the same time, with the rapid development of AI technology, various AI and machine learning algorithms have been applied to the design of ITS, optimizing their performance to varying degrees. This paper provides an overall review of previous ITS research using various techniques of artificial intelligence and machine learning (ML) and provides an overview of ITS and its architecture. In addition, it discusses and summarizes current research efforts and barriers to ITS using AI, as well as some future opportunities. This paper provides an overall comparison of various machine learning techniques that have previously been applied to ITS and an overview of ITS and its architecture. In addition, it discusses and summarizes the current barriers to ITS using AI, as well as an expectation of its future development.
