arXiv:2606. 12422v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The integration of large language models (LLMs) into educational assessment represents a transformative shift in classroom grading practices.
High-stakes English proficiency tests treat standardized, unaided performance as evidence for score interpretations about academic English proficiency. This interpretation remains meaningful, but as target language use domains increasingly involve generative AI, the extrapolation from unaided test performance to academic communicative readiness becomes less self-evident.

The paper introduces a prompt‑engineering framework that personalizes large language model (LLM) teaching assistants across disciplines by tailoring responses to six learner‑specific dimensions, creating 96 distinct learner profiles. It also analyzes student queries through Bloom’s Taxonomy to gauge cognitive complexity, encoding both learner attributes and cognitive assessments into structured prompts that condition the LLM without retraining. Experiments using NLP metrics and a small human study demonstrate that this approach yields perceptible differences in response style and structure, with statistical evidence linking specific learner attributes to measurable changes.
