KnowSim introduces an evaluation framework that uses a user simulator with explicit knowledge states to assess how well large language models calibrate information to users. The simulator represents knowledge as a graph of Information Units with prerequisite relationships and updates these states based on learning theory. KnowSim computes Knowledge Gain, Delivery Calibration, and Cognitive Overload metrics, and its rankings align with human judgments, outperforming baseline simulators and revealing model performance differences across user knowledge levels.

arXiv:2608. 03206v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) power educational applications from tutoring to essay scoring, but each is a point solution to a single task, and only recently have these point solutions been integrated into agents operating over a learning management system (LMS).
ZenGen is a comprehensive framework designed to develop socially intelligent large language models (LLMs). It introduces SoMBench, a psychology‑grounded benchmark with 3 primary and 17 secondary dimensions, and shows that current LLMs perform poorly on social cognition tasks. ZenGen combines supervised fine‑tuning, on‑policy distillation, and rubric‑based reinforcement learning to improve internalization, while Actio provides deployment‑time grounding with typed supports such as PRISM, Starling, SAGE, and gated RAG, yielding significant performance gains across benchmarks.
