  • Professeur titulaire
  • Director of  GRITI  (Inter-university Research Group in Intelligent Tutors, grouping seven universities in Quebec, about 75 researchers).
  • Director of the  HERON laboratory,Informatique et Recherche Opérationnelle, University of Montreal.
  • Doctorat en informatique (1974) et Doctorat d'Etat (1981) en informatique, Université de Nice.


    Since 1988 our research interest is related to Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS) a domain which regroups Artificial Intelligence, Education, Pedagogy, Learning techniques, Knowledge Engineering, e-learning, and Neural techniques. Our ultime goal is to understand how our brain functions and produces knowledge, how this knowledge is stored, retrieved and deployed.
    This activity led to two important steps:
  • the creation of the ITS International Conference (1988), held now every two years in the world,
  • the creation of the GRITI group, involving 7 universities in Quebec, grouped around the SAFARI project which produced about 70 graduate students and led to an international recognition in the field

    Our recent research interest is on Emotional Intelligence. Emotions play a major role in learning, behaviour, and memorization process. The center of emotions in the brain is the entry to memory and knowledge retrieval. So, in focussing on this element of the brain we wish to develop ITS able to control and manage knowledge management and learning. The principle is to build ITS able to control our center of emotions and strengthen human learning.
