Welcome to the Proceedings of the 11th Annual GIFT User Symposium! This year we are celebrating 11 years of GIFT Symposiums and have accepted 15 papers for publication. All of the presentations that occurred at GIFTSym11, and the papers in this volume show the versatility of the Generalized Intelligent Framework for Tutoring (GIFT), and the work that is being done with GIFT. GIFT is an open-source intelligent tutoring system (ITS) architecture that is freely available online at GIFTtutoring.org. There are both Cloud and Downloadable version of GIFT. GIFT has been developed with multiple goals in mind including supporting ITS research, and simplified creation of ITSs and Adaptive Instructional Systems (AISs). Our fantastic team, and our program committee did a great job supporting the development of GIFTSym11, reviewing papers, and assisting with the facilitation of the event this year. We want to recognize them for their efforts: • Benjamin Goldberg • Gregory Goodwin • Michele Myers • Alexandra Lutz • Randall Spain • Lisa N. Townsend We were very pleased to have GIFTSym11 return to being an in-person event this year! Additionally, this was our first year offering a hybrid option for attendees. We are very happy that both modalities were well attended!

This book on team tutoring is the sixth in a planned series of books that examine key topics (e.g., learner modeling, instructional strategies, authoring, domain modeling, assessment, impact on learning, team tu-toring, machine learning for self-improving systems, potential standards, and learning effect evaluation methods) in intelligent tutoring system (ITS) design. This book focuses on team tutoring. The discussion chapters in this book examine topics through the lens of the Generalized Intelligent Framework for Tutoring (GIFT) (Sottilare, Brawner, Goldberg & Holden, 2012; Sottilare, Brawner, Sinatra, & Johnston, 2017). GIFT is a modular, service-oriented architecture created to reduce the cost and skill required to author ITSs, distribute ITSs, manage instruction within ITSs, and evaluate the effect of ITS technologies on learning, performance, retention, transfer of skills, and other instructional outcomes. Along with this volume, the first five books in this series, Learner Modeling (ISBN 978-0-9893923-0-3), Instructional Management (ISBN 978-0-9893923-2-7), Authoring Tools (ISBN 978-0-9893923-6-5), Domain Modeling (978-0-9893923-9-6) and Assessment Methods (ISBN 978-0-9977257-2-8) are freely avail-able at www.GIFTtutoring.org and on Google Play.

The GIFT Users Symposia began in 2013 with the goal to capture successful implementations of GIFT from the user community and to share recommendations leading to more useful capabilities for authors, researchers, and learners of Adaptive Instructional Systems (AIS). The attached proceedings resulted from papers accepted for the 8th Annual GIFT Users Symposium held virtually (due to COVID-19) on 28-29 May 2020. It is a excellent collection of contributions covering all aspects of AIS implementation, with special attention towards future training and education concepts centered around collaboration and team dynamics.

This is the fifth year we have been able to capture the research and development efforts related to the Generalized Intelligent Framework for Tutoring (GIFT) community which at the writing of these proceedings has well over 1000 users in over 65 countries. We are proud of what we have been able to accomplish with the help of our user community. These proceedings are intended to document the evolutions of GIFT as a tool for the authoring of intelligent tutoring systems (ITSs) and the evaluation of adaptive instructional tools and methods.

GIFT is a free, modular, open-source tutoring architecture that is being developed to capture best tutoring practices and support rapid authoring, reuse and interoperability of Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITSs). The authoring tools have been designed to lower costs and entry skills needed to author ITSs and our research continues to seek and discover ways to enhance the adaptiveness of ITSs to support self-regulated learning (SRL). This year marks the sixth year of GIFT Symposia and we accepted 30 papers for publication in this year’s proceedings.
