  abstract =     "This paper describes a paradigm for tutorial systems
                 capable of automatically providing feedback and hints
                 in a game environment. The paradigm is illustrated by a
                 tutoring system for the PLATO game ``How the West Was
                 Won''. The system uses a computer-based ``Expert''
                 player to evaluate a student's moves and construct a
                 ``differential model'' of the student's behavior with
                 respect to the Expert's. The essential aspects of the
                 student's behavior are analyzed with respect to a set
                 of ``issues'', which are addressed to the basic
                 conceptual constraints that might prevent the student's
                 full utilization of the environment. Issues are viewed
                 as procedural specialists that ``wake-up'' or become
                 active when an instance of an issue manifests itself in
                 a move. These issue specialists help the Tutor isolate
                 what to comment on. The intent of the system is to
                 transform a ``fun'' game into a productive learning
                 environment without altering the student's enjoyment.",
