ITU Tier 1+ #36: Education + Learning (Kₑdu)

Key Points

This work evaluates the intersection of education methodologies and AI tutoring's impact on student performance.
Analysis of pedagogical theories including Ebbinghaus and Bloom alongside AI tools like Khanmigo and ChatGPT.
Numerical evaluations on student retention advantages and score improvements from AI tutoring.
Predictions made on achievement gaps and compliance with education regulations through specific timelines.
AI tutoring closed 75% of the achievement gap defined by Bloom's 2-sigma principle.
Retention benefits from spaced repetition yielded a performance increase averaging 304.7 nat-days.
Compared to traditional control, students with AI tutors showed an increase in scores beyond 6.6%.

Abstract

Tier 1+ Pass-1. 5 paper 36 of 45. ITU-derived education + learning on curriculum + student + pedagogy + assessment + institution. Ebbinghaus + Bloom 2-sigma + Khanmigo + ChatGPT EDU 2024. 5. Defines Kₑdu = -log ρₑdu as the operator-algebraic modular Hamiltonian on Hcurriculum ⊗ Hₛtudent ⊗ Hₚedagogy ⊗ Hₐssessment ⊗ Hᵢnstitution. Kₑdu inherits from KQG via the CLPW 2023 type II crossed-product specialised to this scale. Numerical results. Ebbinghaus 1885 R (t) =exp (-t/tau) + SM-2 spaced repetition: 30-day Kₑdu savings = 304. 7 nat-days, 3. 7e11 retention advantage at t=30. Bloom 1984 2-sigma + AI tutor: P (score>80) - control 0. 1%, AI tutor (+1. 5sigma) 6. 6%, 1: 1 tutor (+2sigma) 16. 0%. AI tutor closes 75% of Bloom 2-sigma gap. Topics covered.
