A system is disclosed that provides a goal based learning system utilizing
a rule based expert training system to provide a cognitive educational
experience. The system provides the user with a simulated environment
that presents a training opportunity to understand and solve optimally.
The system utilizes an artificial intelligence engine driving
individualized and dynamic feedback with synchronized audio, video,
graphics and animation used to simulate real-world environment and
interactions. Multiple "correct" answers are integrated into the learning
system to allow individualized learning experiances in which navigation
through the system is at a pace controlled by the learner. Multiple users
or students can utilize the simulated environment simultaniously and
interactively from mupltiple viewpoints. A dynamic feedback system is
utilized theat narrowly tailors feedback and focuses it based on the
performance and characteristics of the student to assist the student in
reaching a predefined goal.
