Pedagogical Agent

Pedagogical agents are AI systems designed to interact with learners, providing personalized instruction and feedback to enhance the learning process. Current research focuses on improving agent capabilities through techniques like large language models (LLMs), multi-agent systems, and reinforcement learning, often incorporating elements of embodiment and personality to increase engagement. These advancements aim to address limitations in traditional educational methods by offering scalable, interactive, and personalized learning experiences, impacting both educational practice and the development of more sophisticated AI agents. The ultimate goal is to create effective and engaging learning environments that leverage the strengths of both human and artificial intelligence.
