A reflective analysis methodology based upon an interactive, dynamic questioning procedure that implements reflective practices of individual learners. Comprehensive educational activities are designed to model cognitive behaviors of successful students. During interactive diagnostic testing, the learner is asked to reflect on the degree of certainty for each of his answers. After completing the diagnostic test, reflective questions are posed specifically responsive to the learner's answers to selected items. This series of reflective questions is designed to cause the student to search for patterns, clues, and problem-solving strategies related to the specific content being studied. In so doing, thinking behaviors that the student has used or should have used are analyzed, and concomitantly constructs strategic modeling from a database of comprehensive instructional activities for addressing a given concept or skill in the future. System diagnosis provides the teacher with instant feedback on the learner's performance. Thus, the scaffolding of new leaning and follow-up tutorials may be totally customized on a learner-by-learner basis. This customization and individualization is enabled by the branching logic underlying the reflective analysis methodology.
