Adapting for AI: How elementary teachers adjust their practices for an AI-integrated curriculum
The article examines how three elementary teachers implemented a conversational AI‑based curriculum using the ToyTalk platform during a three‑week summer camp. Over 13 instructional days, teachers employed adaptive practices—repair, differentiation, translation, and balancing—to navigate tensions among technology, learners, and instruction. Their understanding of AI and instructional roles evolved throughout the camp, leading to design implications for deploying conversational AI in elementary classrooms.

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.

Feedback Without the Wait: Piloting a Generative AI Practice Platform in a Large Maths Class
The paper describes a pilot study of a generative AI practice platform designed to give immediate, scaffolded feedback to students in a large mathematics class. By moving human oversight to the verification of solutions rather than real‑time grading, the platform aims to reduce delays while maintaining trust and accountability. The study investigates student engagement, perceived value, and reliability of the AI feedback, and explores how these findings might apply to other engineering subjects.
