New framework models student knowledge in AI-tutored dialogues

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers have developed a unified framework to analyze student interactions in educational dialogues, moving beyond just responses to questions. This framework models both student answers to direct questions and their engagement with subtasks posed by tutors on a shared item response theory (IRT) scale. By identifying and converting mathematical subtasks into self-contained questions, the system can assess student knowledge more granularly and track evolving abilities across different interaction types. The approach was evaluated on two real-world math education datasets, demonstrating superior performance in predicting question difficulty and response correctness compared to existing methods. AI

IMPACT This framework could enhance AI tutors' ability to understand and adapt to student learning needs in real-time.

    A Unified Response Framework for Questions and Tutoring Dialogues

    arXiv:2610.19532v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Existing student models in educational applications largely focus on student responses to questions. However, as tutoring becomes more accessible at large scale, it is important to analyze dialogues between tutors and students, whic…
