Abstract: | Intelligent computer-assisted instructional systems have been constructed and applied within a wide range of fields. Very
few of these systems make explicit a central or set of core learning theories or learning environments upon which a system
is based. However, many of these systems have implicitly employed learning theories and environments. This paper looks at
a variety of intelligent computer-assisted systems with a view towards uncovering the latent learning theories they employ.
The interplay of the various learning theories needed to realise a student-initiated learning environment are discussed. The
central features required for such an environment to function and the limitations of realising such a learning environment
due to the state of the art of present day systems are also discussed.
