Roger C. Schank, director of the Institute for the Learning Sciences (ILS) at Northwestern University, is a leader in the field of artificial intelligence and multimedia-based interactive training. His work stresses the value of learning from experts, developing skills rather than perfecting routines, and applying the benefits of "just-in-time" training. Schank has been the director of ILS since its founding in 1989. ILS, founded with support from Andersen Consulting, now has a staff of 170, including research and teaching faculty, programmers and content specialists, over 50 graduate students and nearly 30 interns and visiting staff. Schank is a strong critic of today's educational system. His approach to learning, and training in a corporate setting, involves helping people learn by doing, allowing people to make mistakes in a safe learning environment and sharing war stories with leading teachers and experts. This effort has led to his highly successful role as a teacher, consultant, and lecturer, as well as developer of extremely powerful and effective multimedia training tools. One of the world's leading AI researchers, Schank is the author of more than 125 articles and publications. His books include Dynamic Memory: A Theory of Learning in Computers and People; Tell Me a Story: A New Look at Real and Artificial Memory, The Connoisseur's Guide to the Mind, and Engines for Education. His newest book, Virtual Learning, will be published this spring by McGraw-Hill. Schank holds three faculty appointments at Northwestern University, as John Evans Professor of Computer Science, Education and Psychology. Previously he was a professor of computer science and psychology at Yale University and director of the Yale Artificial Intelligence Project. He was a visiting professor at the University of Paris VII, a faculty member at Stanford University and research fellow at the Institute for Semantics and Cognition in Switzerland. Schank is a fellow of the AAAI and was the founder of the Cognitive Science Society and co-founder of the Journal of Cognitive Science. He holds a Ph.D. in linguistics from the University of Texas. |
