RAG-Grounded GenAI Feedback Tool Shows Promise for K-12 Writing, but Rating Inconsistencies Demand Human Oversight
CyberScholar, a GenAI formative feedback tool using Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) to integrate teacher rubrics and exemplars, was evaluated across 143 K–12 students and 5 teachers in a multiple-case study.

Teaching Resists AI Automation Due to Human-Centric Complexity
Teaching, unlike other professions, is inherently resistant to full automation by AI. This is because effective instruction relies on interpretive, relational, and context-dependent human judgment. AI can aid specific educational tasks, but it cannot supplant the need for human understanding of cogn…
Verifying Code Comprehension: A Hybrid Socratic Framework for LLM-Era Programming Assessment
To counter the decoupling of code correctness and student understanding caused by LLMs, this paper proposes a Hybrid Socratic Framework for Automated Programming Assessment Systems (APASs). The framework integrates deterministic runtime analysis with a dual-agent conversational layer to probe studen…
