arXiv:2608. 13545v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern language models are trained on heterogeneous web-scale text corpora.
Large language models (LLMs) achieve strong performance across many tasks, but their high computational cost limits deployment in resource-constrained environments. Knowledge Distillation (KD) offers a practical solution by transferring knowledge from a teacher model of a larger size to a smaller student model.
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:2606. 06546v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Evaluating large language models (LLMs) for education requires measuring how models teach, not only what they know.
arXiv:2608. 03952v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used to provide conversational practice for English-as-a-second-language (ESL) learners.
arXiv:2606. 09767v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Neural machine translation for digitally low-resource Indigenous languages is often hindered by extreme data scarcity, prompting reliance on extractive web-scraping.
arXiv:2608. 09548v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models are increasingly deployed in education as tutors, teaching assistants, and content generators.
arXiv:2607. 06160v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Synthesizing long-context supervised fine-tuning (SFT) data is a scalable way to enhance the long-context understanding of large language models (LLMs), yet existing approaches share three limitations: narrow task coverage, insufficient instruction difficulty, and a lack of faithfulness supervision.
We introduce Dango, a 1. 8B-parameter large language model designed for controlled studies of L1-to-L2 (Japanese-to-English) transfer in second language acquisition (SLA).
arXiv:2608. 07208v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Existing measures of how much a text is about a concept read the surface of the text: dictionary word shares, topic proportions, embedding similarities.
arXiv:2604. 27660v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Many real-world tasks require language models (LMs) to reason over complex contexts that exceed their parametric knowledge.
arXiv:2603. 02830v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Predicting future student responses to questions is particularly valuable for educational learning platforms where it enables effective interventions.
arXiv:2605. 18879v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large language models inevitably retain sensitive information, defined as inputs that may induce harmful generations, due to training on massive web corpora, raising concerns for privacy and safety.
