Today’s educators face unprecedented challenges: growing class sizes that limit individual attention, increasingly diverse student needs, and limited office hours that can’t accommodate everyone. Imagine having a dedicated team of teaching assistants and tutors available 24/7 for every student. Not just any tutors, but ones that never tire, never judge, and always offer consistent, accurate assistance aligned with your course materials.
This isn’t just a hypothetical scenario, it’s happening now with Hawkes Learning’s cutting-edge learning duo: Explain Error and AI Tutor.
Meet Hawkes’ Personal Tutors
Explain Error
“I’ve used many of these types of online courses. This is the only one I actually like, because it explains WHY your answers are wrong and how to get the right one.”
– Tera K., Student at Morehead State University
Explain Error goes beyond merely identifying incorrect answers; it intelligently guides students through their mistakes, helping them understand how to reach the correct solutions.
This first-of-its-kind feature offers:
- Immediate, error-specific feedback when students make mistakes.
- Personalized guidance that mimics the support typically available only during office hours.
- Insights into not just what went wrong, but why, fostering a deeper understanding.
- Preventative remediation that addresses misconceptions at their source, helping to correct errors before students commit them to memory and avoid common pitfalls in the future.
AI Tutor
“My favorite part of the new AI feature is that it never gives the students the answer. Instead, it forces the students to work through their confusion, mistakes, and misconceptions, and helps them to arrive at the right answer on their own. “
– Rebecca Snider, Instructor at Savannah Technical College
Working alongside Explain Error and taking personalized learning to the next level, AI Tutor engages students in thoughtful, student-led conversations within a responsible and secure environment. Here, students can freely ask questions related to course material without the fear of judgment or encountering unhelpful information.
Unlike other generative AI tools, this proprietary system:
- Draws exclusively from vetted Hawkes instructional content
- Delivers real-time, contextualized support
- Encourages critical thinking through guided conversations
- Creates a safe, contained learning environment that not only prevents academic dishonesty but also safeguards personal data
