AI Tutor: Designed to Support Genuine Learning
We know generative AI has a mixed reputation among educators; that’s why we intentionally designed AI Tutor to be different. AI Tutor doesn’t just give students the answer. It engages students in a conversational way, prompting them to think critically, work through problems independently, and build lasting skills by answering questions like:
“Can you define reactant for me?” “Can you give me some background info on this?” “Can you walk me through each step of this problem?”
“Can you explain this in a different way?” “I’m a nursing student. How does this help me with my job?” “How do I solve this using a TI-84?”
“[AI Tutor] was like having a 24/7 tutor who knew exactly where I was struggling and could guide me back on track. Instead of drowning in complicated terminology, it broke things down in a way that felt approachable.” – Inam O., Student at the University of Virginia’s College at Wise
AI Tutor continues to provide just-in-time, step-by-step support that adapts to each student’s unique needs. Whether students are stuck on a specific question or reviewing foundational concepts, AI Tutor helps them move forward with confidence by:
Offering real-time help—no waiting for office hours
Promoting s independent problem-solving
Providing personalized responses tailored to student input
Being available 24/7 for anytime learning support
