Description¶
The article describes a technology ecosystem for dynamic combinations of individual and collaborative learning. It consists of "two intelligent tutoring systems and a teacher-facing co-orchestration tool that allows dynamic pairing." The orchestration tool helps teachers make real-time, data-informed decisions about when students should switch between learning modes, using rule-based pairing suggestions based on Bayesian Knowledge Tracing, knowledge distance, and student struggle status.
Design Implications¶
Context¶
Requirements¶
- An ITS for individual algebra practice, a peer-tutoring system for collaborative work, and a teacher-facing tool with access to real-time learning analytics.
Constraints¶
- Designed for algebra and equation-solving content.
Target Learners¶
- K-12 mathematics students
Learning Goals¶
- algebra equation solving
- peer tutoring
- collaborative problem-solving
Claims¶
- After pairing, both groups favored saving progress over abrupt transitions and trusted data-informed future pairing over student-only ratings. [+W]
- During pairing, both teachers and students favored shared decision-making over full student control for roles, partners, and collaboration content. [+W]
Related Designs¶
- A three-stage design space for hybrid control in dynamic pairing: before, during, and after pairing up.
- Intelligent tutoring systems as three-model architectures operationalizing formative assessment
- Intelligent tutoring system for fractions used in individual, collaborative, and combined learning conditions
