Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS) represents a wide class of computer based tutoring systems, designed with an extensive use of the technology of modern Artificial Intelligence. Successful applications of various expert systems and other knowledge based systems of AI gave rise to a new wave of interests to ITS. Yet, many authors conclude that practically valuable achievements of ITS are rather modest despite the relatively long history of attempts to use knowledge based systems for tutoring. It is advocated in this paper that some basic obstacles for designing really successful ITS are due to the lack of well understood and sound models of the education process. The paper proposes to overcome these problems by borrowing the required models from AI and adjacent fields. In particular, the concept of Learning Levels from AI might be very useful both for giving a valuable retrospective analysis of computer based tutoring and for suggestion of some perspective directions in the field of ITS.
