Oct 8, 2024, 07:06 PM

Researchers at Stanford University have introduced Tutor CoPilot, a human-AI collaborative system aimed at enhancing real-time tutoring quality. The system was evaluated in a large-scale intervention involving 900 tutors and 1,800 K12 students, showing statistically significant positive learning gains. The study, led by R. E. Wang, A. T. Ribeiro, C. D. Robinson, and S. Loeb from Stanford University in 2024, demonstrated that math tutors using Tutor CoPilot were significantly more likely to help students master their topics. This rigorous research underscores the potential of AI to transform real-world educational outcomes.
