"We've been absolutely staggered by realising the computer has the capability to act as if it were ten of the top psychologists working with one student...You've seen the tip of the iceberg. Won't it be wonderful when the child in the smallest county in the most distant area or in the most confused urban setting can have the equivalent of the finest school in the world on that terminal and no one can get between that child and that curriculum? We have great moments coming in the history of education."

1984 quote from Dustin Heuston of Utah's World Institute for Computer-Assisted Teaching (WICAT):

I've done a lot of research into computer/virtual education and i believe computers shouldn't be in the classroom. Professor B.F. Skinner, the U.S. father of operant conditioning, referred to the computer as "his box." The ultimate tool for reshaping, restructuring and changing the attitudes of our children in conjunction with “programmed” learning (direct instruction) software.

"The Role of the Computer in Future Instructional Systems" published 1963 supplement of Audiovisual Communication Review of the Technological Development Project of the NEA- Excerpts from a chapter entitled "Effortless Learning, Attitude Changing, and Training in Decision-Making" followed:

"Another area of potential development in computer applications is the attitude changing machine. Dr. Bertram Raven in the Psychology Department at the University of California at Los Angeles is in the process of building a computer-based device for changing attitudes''. This device will work on the principle that students' attitudes can be changed effectively by using the Socratic method of asking an appropriate series of leading questions designed to right the balance between appropriate attitudes, and those deemed less acceptable''

Read the following series by Anita Hoge,

Emotionally-Sensitive Intelligent Tutoring Systems are being developed by the University of Memphis. They seek a licensee to commercialize a significant advance in Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITSs). The invention consists of software and proprietary algorithms which allow ITSs to sense and optimally respond to the learner’s emotional states and not simply their cognitive states. The invention represents the first Intelligent Tutoring System with natural language dialogue that detects and responds to students’ emotional state. Two novel aspects that make this unique are:

The algorithm used to detect student emotions combines conversational cues, posture, and facial features. This form of multimodal affect detection is achieved via a three-channel decision level fusion algorithm.

The strategies the system uses to respond to students’ emotional and cognitive states. This is accomplished with a theoretically-grounded production system that helps students regulate their negative emotional state in a manner that is dynamically responsive to each individual learner.”
