The paper evaluates Large Language Models for automatically analyzing responses in digital teacher simulations. Experiments compare DeBERTaV3 and Llama 3 across zero‑shot, few‑shot, and fine‑tuning settings, revealing that performance varies by characteristic and that Llama 3 consistently outperforms DeBERTaV3, especially when new characteristics must be identified. The findings suggest Llama 3 is preferable for dynamic simulation environments where teacher educators introduce new evaluation criteria.

arXiv:2607. 05571v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models are increasingly explored as AI tutors, yet deploying them in K-12 settings raises concerns around privacy, cost, and reliance on proprietary models.
arXiv:2607. 22598v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Educational chatbots powered by large language models (LLMs) show promising effects on learning outcomes, yet most systems delegate pedagogical decisions such as content selection and didactic structuring implicitly to the LLM, making tutoring strategies difficult to trace, evaluate, and reproduce.
arXiv:2608. 10492v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Language Model (LLM)-based simulators often reproduce observable actions but fail to capture the underlying reasoning behind them.
User interface (UI) and user experience (UX) evaluation is central to product development, yet reliable feedback still relies on recruiting human participants or running online A/B tests, making early-stage iteration slow and costly. In light of this, recent work has explored Multimodal Large Language Models as proxy evaluators.
