摘要:Teaching new material and reviewing what has already been taught are two important activities in the educational process. Different students with different learning abilities need to review at different rates, that is to say, a personalized teaching process is necessary. Review has a spacing effect, namely it is most useful only if it is executed neither too soon nor too late. How should designers of educational software schedule the learning process to satisfy the need that different students learn different material. We present a mathematical model to capture the issue in idealized form. The learning abilities of students and the spacing effect of review are modeled as some input parameters' constraints on the schedule. Our results include the optimal scheduling in accordance with which tutoring systems teach one student specific material, characteristics of the rate at which new material can be introduced under different conditions, and the reproduction of ladder-like educational process.
