Abstract

We have built an instructional design support system called "FIMA-Light" which reasons about a teacher's intentions from his/her lesson plan and automatically produces I-L event decomposition trees. The decomposition tree expresses the ways of achieving a learner's state change that should be realized in a whole lesson in the form of a tree structure. In this paper, we discuss the difficulty of attaining the goals of university education without using our approach. We also report on practical use of FIMA-Light in teacher training at university in order to investigate changes in students' awareness of teaching strategies brought about by providing them with I-L event decomposition trees.
