Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS) generate a wealth of finegrained student interaction data. Although it seems likely that teachers could benefit from access to advanced analytics generated from these data, ITSs do not typically come with dashboards designed for teachers’ needs. In this project, we follow a user-centered design approach to create a dashboard for teachers using ITSs.

One selected clinical supervision, one selected contextual supervision, and one selected...

In this research article we share our vision of how to improve student mathematics success in rural districts. Good teaching matters. We have found two recurring features that can support teachers' success in effectively teaching students mathematics: high-quality, longitudinal professional development and professional connections. We partner with rural districts and master teachers to offer lo...

This article introduces a teacher-student framework for reinforcement learning, synthesizing and extending material that appeared in conference proceedings [22] and in a non-archival workshop paper [6]. In this framework, a teacher agent instructs a student agent by suggesting actions the student should take as it learns. However, the teacher may only give such advice a limited number of times....

The intervention implied that the students were t...
