"An intelligent tutoring system is computer software designed to simulate a human tutor's behavior and guidance. Because these systems are able to interpret complex student responses and can learn as they operate, they are able to discern where and why a student's understanding has gone astray and to offer hints to help the student understand the material at hand. Intelligent tutors provide many of the benefits of a human tutor to very large numbers of students. Intelligent tutoring systems can also provide real-time data to instructors and developers looking to refine teaching methods."

"They are part of Stanford Law School's new Law and Policy Lab, a growing collection of small-group practicums that match experienced faculty and student teams with actual clients-many from federal, state, or local government. The only program of its breadth and depth at a law school, the Policy Lab is tackling real-world challenges ranging from tax code reform to childhood obesity to wildlife trafficking, with students gaining valuable experience in policy analysis where lawyers often contribute but law schools offer little to no preparation. Students in Weisberg's practicum have been immersed in research during the winter and spring quarters, looking at everything from existing state and federal laws, Fourth Amendment cases, the technology itself, and more.
