Edustories: A Collection of Real-world Case Studies from Classroom Practices
Edustories is a dataset of 1,492 teacher‑written case studies that detail real elementary and high‑school classroom situations involving challenging student behavior, pedagogical interventions, and their outcomes. The collection is designed to enable research on AI assistance in collective teaching contexts, such as evaluating large language models’ ability to predict the success of teacher interventions. Comparative tests show that current models achieve 58% accuracy, below the 64% accuracy of human experts, indicating a gap between AI and human expertise in predicting classroom outcomes.
