Playing Dumb to Get Smart: Creating and Evaluating an LLM-based Teachable Agent within University Computer Science Classes

This work presents the iterative design and evaluation of a large-language-model (LLM) based teachable agent, MatlabTutee, that facilitates learning-by-teaching (LBT) experiences within university computer science courses. We detail four different experiments, with a total of 119 students, where we refine our system,…
