Abstract

The rapid evolution of Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS) has transformed contemporary educational discourse, particularly regarding how automated systems can enhance students’ problem-solving abilities in STEM fields. Although empirical studies consistently show that ITS can outperform traditional instruction, the mechanisms driving these gains remain insufficiently emphasized in policy and pedagogical narratives. This article argues that ITS effectiveness stems from a synergy of seven cognitive mechanisms: adaptive scaffolding, immediate and elaborated feedback, model-tracing and knowledge-tracing, metacognitive prompting, productive practice, error-driven learning, and cognitive load regulation. An opinion-based synthesis supported by extensive literature is presented to advocate for the strategic integration of ITS within national instructional reforms. The conceptual framework includes a visual diagram representing the mechanisms and their interactions. Results and discussion are organized into three subsections The article concludes with recommendations for adopting ITS in large-scale educational systems to improve learners' higher-order problem-solving.

Abstract

This study aims to reveal prospective teachers’ perceptions of the concept of “digital literacy” through metaphors. The study was conducted using a phenomenological research design and carried out with 45 prospective teachers studying at Sivas Cumhuriyet University during the 2024–2025 academic year. The data were collected through an open-ended metaphor form, asking participants to complete the statement “Digital literacy is like… because…”. The responses were analyzed using content analysis. A total of 45 metaphors were obtained, and the most frequently used metaphors were book, knowledge, and real literacy. The metaphors were grouped under five categories: Education, Technology, Abstract, Tool/Object, and Nature, with Education being the most concentrated category. The findings indicated that prospective teachers largely associate digital literacy with accessing information, learning, understanding, and using technology consciously. In conclusion, prospective teachers view digital literacy as an essential skill in modern life, a fundamental resource for accessing information, and a multidimensional domain that needs to be managed carefully. This study offers insights for enhancing prospective teachers’ cognitive and pedagogical awareness regarding digital literacy.
