Tracing Mathematical Proficiency Through Problem-Solving Processes

The paper introduces Knowledge Tracing Leveraging Problem‑Solving Process (KT‑PSP), a method that incorporates students’ problem‑solving steps to model mathematical proficiency more comprehensively than traditional knowledge tracing. It presents the KT‑PSP‑25 dataset and a new framework, StatusKT, which uses a teacher‑student‑teacher LLM pipeline to extract proficiency indicators, generate responses, and evaluate mastery. Experiments show that StatusKT improves prediction accuracy and offers interpretable explanations by explicitly modeling proficiency.

EduClaw-Bench: A Long-Horizon Benchmark for Pedagogical LLM Agents with Simulated Learners

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).

SKILL-KD: Contrastive Skill Distillation for LLM Agents

arXiv:2607. 28048v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Skill-based prompting has become a practical mechanism for improving large language model (LLM) agents, yet existing skill acquisition methods often treat skills as experience summaries, memory entries, or direct summaries of successful demonstrations.

Incorporating Cognitive Load and Knowledge Transfer for Multi-Domain Knowledge Tracing

The paper introduces LT‑MKT, a new method for multi‑domain knowledge tracing that incorporates cognitive load and knowledge transfer. It constructs a multi‑domain hierarchical graph using textual information from questions and concepts, then explicitly models cross‑domain temporal and knowledge features to capture cognitive load effects. A knowledge transfer module further captures propagation of knowledge states within and across domains, leading to more accurate predictions of students’ future performance.
