Abstract : This research note provides an overview of the four major aspects of the PIXIE project: the field work undertaken to determine how teachers diagnose and remediate during introductory algebra courses, the set of experiments run to determine the relative effectiveness of Model Based Remediation (MBR) and Reteaching, systems work carried out to remedy short-comings noted earlier in the Intelligent Tutoring System (PIXIE), and an experiment run to determine whether it is possible to enhance teachers' diagnostic capabilities. Keywords: Intelligent Tutoring System, Artificial Intelligence, Reteaching, Cognition, PIXIE project, Teaching methods.
