Story Generation to Accelerate Math Problem Authoring for Practice and Assessment

We present a novel authoring infrastructure for accelerating the rate of content creation for coached practice environments. In an initial authoring stage, the tool supports quick authoring of scaffolded problems, drawing upon principles established in prior intelligent tutoring authoring research. However, in contrast to earlier approaches, the result of this stage is a structured template than can be used to generate a multitude of variations on the same problem concept.
