Abstract
his paper presents empirical results about the behavior effect of two different hinting strategies applied on exercises within an ITS: having some penalty on the scoring for viewing hints or not having any effect on the scoring; and hints directly available or only available as a result to an incorrect attempt. We analyze the students' behavior differences when these hinting techniques changed, taking into account the type and difficulty of the presented exercises.
