<p>LoriMiller: </p> <hr /> <div>Some students, when using tutoring systems,[http://www.trustedessays.net/ trustedessays] attempt to guess systematically to obtain the answer without knowing the material. <br /> <br /> For instance, a student may enter 1,2,3,4,… or may click every checkbox within a set of multiple-choice answers, until the tutor identifies a correct answer and allows the student to advance.<br /> <br /> Systematic guessing is considered to be a type of [[gaming the system]].<br /> <br /> Baker, R.S., Corbett, A.T., Koedinger, K.R., Wagner, A.Z.
