"Chatbot is a computer program that simulates human conversation through voice\r\ncommands or text chats or both. Chatbots are designed to convincingly simulate how a\r\nhuman would behave as a conversational partner. Chatbots with artificial intelligence\r\ntechnology can be used to teach the students by turning a lecture in a series of messages\r\nto make it look like a standardised chat conversation. The paper describes the\r\ndevelopment of intelligent chatbots that had been built for Java programming course.\r\nMost of the learning courseware/systems to learn Java programming language are\r\nmerely repository of static and monotonous contents such as hyperlinked online\r\ntutorials, video lectures, etc. In order to address these shortcomings, seven text-based\r\nconversational chatbots for the students to learn Java in an interactive and engaging\r\nmanners had been built. Each of these chatbots focuses on different programming\r\nconcepts or constructs. These chatbots support learning of Java via problem-solving\r\nsteps through “learning by doing”. The unique features of these chatbots are (i) The\r\nchatbots are self-contained, interconnected and are able to initiate a learning process\r\nfor a particular learning outcome and provide feedback to a student as they are working\r\nthrough problems; (ii) These chatbots are able to engage the learners’ in the “one-toone” session of the problem-solving process for more than one-hour through\r\nconversing with a student; and (iii) It supports immersive learning in order simulate the\r\nrealistic scenarios and environments that give learners the opportunity to practice skills\r\nand interact with the simulated tutor. These chatbots acquired its intelligence through\r\na hybrid approach that combines pattern-matching technique and machine learning\r\nalgorithm in order to formulate its responses. The feedback from the students who used\r\nthese chatbots and the effect of these chatbots on the students’ understanding of the\r\nsubject matter were favourable as discussed in the paper.\r\n (Abstract by author)"^^ .
