统一建模问答与辅导对话的IRT响应框架
A Unified Response Framework for Questions and Tutoring Dialogues
AI 导读
该研究提出一个统一框架,将学生对问题的回答与辅导对话中导师提出的子任务建模在同一IRT量表上。方法先从辅导对话中识别数学子任务并改写为自包含问题,再通过IRT从文本估计题目/子任务难度、追踪学生能力变化,并利用导师在连续子任务间的引导动作正则化难度值。在两个含人类与AI辅导对话的真实数学教育数据集上,该框架在题目难度预测和回答正确性预测上均优于强基线。

Abstract:Existing student models in educational applications largely focus on student responses to questions. However, as tutoring becomes more accessible at large scale, it is important to analyze dialogues between tutors and students, which may reveal fine-grained evidence on student knowledge. In this work, we propose a unified framework that models both student responses to questions and tutor-posed subtasks during dialogues on a shared item response theory (IRT) scale. We first identify mathematical subtasks in tutoring dialogues, rewrite them into self-contained questions, and identify the correctness of student responses to these subtasks. We then develop an IRT framework that estimates question/subtask difficulty from text, tracks students' evolving abilities across question-answering and dialogue interactions, and a novel method to leverages tutor moves between consecutive subtasks to regularize their difficulty values. We evaluate our framework on two real-world math education datasets containing both human- and AI-tutored dialogues. Results show that our framework outperforms strong baselines on both question difficulty prediction and response correctness prediction.
