Description¶

To move AIED systems into regular school usage, the paper recommends that deployments satisfy schools' operational needs. It states that "AIED system deployments need to meet the criteria of schools – such as available technical support and troubleshooting, stability and continuous availability." Because research prototypes often fail these criteria, the paper suggests professional methods such as commercial spin-offs, noting universities can hardly deliver stable systems with continuous support.

Design Implications¶

Context¶

Requirements¶

• Continuous support structures and stable, reliable systems that function in everyday school use

Constraints¶

• Research test prototypes developed as part of a PhD thesis often fail to meet these criteria, and profitability requires a larger clientele

Target Learners¶

• school students and teachers in regular classroom deployments

Target Learning Goals¶

• sustained practical use of adaptive tutoring technology in classrooms

Related Strategies¶

• Tailor AI deployment to specific applications and stakeholder groups rather than applying a one-size-fits-all integration approach
• Strengthen implementation scaffolding for new edtech rollouts with routines, guided practice, and change management grounded in observed workflows
• Embed product rollout into existing routines with structured cadences, teacher champions, and stipends to accelerate adoption
