Abstract
The present paper introduces a new model for teaching {em randomized learners}.
Our new model, though based on the classical teaching dimension model,
allows to study the influence of various parameters such as the
learner\u27s memory size, its ability to provide or to not provide feedback,
and the influence of the order in which examples are presented.
Furthermore, within the new model it is possible to investigate
new aspects of teaching like teaching from positive data only or
teaching with inconsistent teachers.
Furthermore, we provide characterization theorems for teachability from
positive data for both ordinary teachers and inconsistent teachers with and
without feedback
