Abstract. Student modeling (SM) is recognized as one of the central problems in the area of Intelligent Tutoring Systems. Numerous SM approaches have been proposed and used with more or less success. Constraint-based modeling is a new approach, which has been used successfully in three tutors developed in our group. The approach is extremely efficient, and it overcomes many problems that other student modelling approaches suffer from. We present the advantages of CBM over other similar approaches, describe three constraint-based tutors and present our future research plans.
