This post reports on a study that looked at research on AI-powered teaching assistants. "These assistants can help students manage feelings such as anxiety and to build confidence, making learning more engaging," write the authors. It's important to look at more than just test results when evaluating the assistants, including "how students feel about the assistant and their learning experience, assessed through surveys and interviews." For a service like, say, Duolingo, engagement and retention matter much more than test scores.
