Abstract
Recent research points to the notion that motivation is a crucial factor when creating Intelligent Learning Environments (ILEs). Yet the research in motivation in tutoring systems has not fully considered relationships between features of ILEs and components of learners’ motivational structure. This paper proposes to use a qualitative modelling approach to model motivational characteristics of learners while interacting with an ILE within the context of educational game and narrative.
