Creating Generative-AI Powered Learning Systems to Facilitate Equitable K-2 Literacy Education
Faculty Advisor: Jessica Townsend
Sponsor: Boston University Wheelock Institute for the Science of Education
The BU WISE SCOPE team worked with large-language models to create a web-app that acts as a “literacy buddy" for students and a teaching assistant for teachers. This web-app provides a platform for students to play literacy-building games and collects performance data. This data is integrated directly with a visualization tool that allows teachers to view the students’ progress and an ML model that summarizes and determines how best to support the students’ success with further interventions. We hope that this tool augments the capabilities of teachers and students alike in developing stronger literacy skills and confidence in their communication.
