Summary
This paper describes a support method for programming education in self-learning style and its implementation. It is difficult and important for learners to keep their motivation. In this research, methods for catching the learning data, which cope with four learning steps; reading text, check test, coding and compile, are developed. Psychological agent, which analyzes the learning data and grasps each learner’s state based on ARCS model, is also developed. According to the diagnosis by psychological agent, interface agent gives advice and hints to the learner in visual and auditory way. Implementation of prototype system, an experiment with the prototype and its results are reported. Finally, the efficiency of proposed method and further problems are discussed.
