Towards an Intelligent Tutor for Mathematical Proofs by Serge Autexier, Dominik Dietrich, Marvin Schiller

“…Our approach is motivated by phenomena found in a corpus of tutorial dialogs that were collected in a Wizard-of-Oz experiment. We show how an intelligent tutor for textbook-style mathematical proofs can be built on top of an adapted assertion-level proof assistant by reusing representations and proof search strategies originally developed for automated and interactive theorem proving. …”

Early Development of a Virtual Coach for Healthy Coping Interventions in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: Validation Study by Giulia Bassi, Ivan Donadello, Silvia Gabrielli, Silvia Salcuni, Claudio Giuliano, Stefano Forti

“…The protocol was refined with the support of 3 experts in the design of behavioral intervention technologies for mental health and well-being, who role-played 3 SPs’ profiles receiving the virtual coaching intervention in a Wizard of Oz setting via WhatsApp. A refined version of the healthy coping protocol was then iteratively tested with a sample of 18 university students (mean age 23.61, SD 1.975 years) in a slightly different Wizard of Oz evaluation setting. …”

The Witch´s Image: from Historical Antiquity to Contemporary Film Representations by Bruno Vinicius Kutelak Dias, Regina Helena Urias Cabreira

“…In order to do so, we will use works by Civita, (1997), Blécourt (2017), Clark (2006), Maxwell-Stuart (2017), Page (2017), Sharpe (2017) and Wallis (2017) apart from contemporary film versions from The Wizard of Oz (1939) through The Witch (2015), which depict the witch’s image transformation, so we can analyze, through its iconography, how such image was and is determined by the demands of several historical eras.…”

Две сказки: Волшебник страны Оз, 1939 - Золушка, 1947 by Vladimir Paperny

“…A comparison of the two film traditions revealed amazing overlaps in plots, cultural mythologies, and even frame construction. Comparing The Wizard of Oz with Cinderella, the author comes to important observations about how the similarity of social processes taking place in both countries gave rise to sometimes opposite ideological messages embedded in the compared pictures. …”
