Researchers have introduced STRETCH, a novel framework designed to overcome capability stagnation in large language models (LLMs) during self-improvement training. Inspired by cognitive scaffolding theory, STRETCH employs a dynamic "Stretch Zone" mechanism to continuously adjust the difficulty of challenges presented to the LLM, aligning them with the model's evolving proficiency. This framework enables a single parameter space to host both a "Scaffolder" that generates adaptive challenges and a "Learner" that refines its problem-solving through reinforcement learning, leading to more stable training and progressive reasoning growth.
