The Institute for the Learning Sciences is a leading
research institute developing innovative computer
implementations of new ideas in areas of training and
education.
STATUS: Full-Time, 40 hours per week
JOB FUNCTION: This job involves programming for a project
that is using qualitative reasoning and analogical reasoning
techniques to develop new kinds of educational software.
The software to be built includes systems that enable
teachers to craft simulations and an intelligent learning
environment that teaches students how to build models,
both qualitative and quantitative. The target student
populations range from elementary through high school
students. This project is expected to last at least two
years, starting in June.
SKILLS/EXPERIENCE PREFERRED: This project requires a
dedication to creating robust, efficient, and friendly
software and excellent working knowledge of Common Lisp.
Experience with CLIM, C++, and/or Visual Basic is also a
plus, as is experience with artificial intelligence work and
interface design. The development and delivery platform
will be Pentiums running Windows, so familiarity with that
environment is also an advantage.
