Our Approach
One of the highest levels of mastery is being able to teach someone else. Research shows the many ways students benefit by practicing with teachable agents. Link 1, Link 2
Advancements with GPT and other language models have made conversing with hyper-engaging bots widely accessible. Most edtech endeavors using this technology are naturally focused on interfaces where students learn from a tutor.
We intend to flip the AI paradigm– what if instead of learning from a bot, we empowered kids to create and teach their own characters?
Frequently asked questions
StudyBuds is a gamified learning platform designed to help students practice academic concepts in a rigorous but engaging way. Through AI-driven features, students can reinforce what they’ve learned and gain mastery in various subjects.
StudyBuds combines an interactive chat with the ability to annotate curated stimuli for their protege to learn from. Students interact with characters who present misconceptions and are challenged to use the chat and resources to help educate the character on why they might be wrong. They earn points for how deeply the character is taught, making the learning experience enjoyable without sacrificing rigor.
StudyBuds is designed for any student who can read and write. We have validated through user testing in upper elementary, middle school, and early high school social studies and science classrooms. However, the platform can be beneficial for anyone interested in improving their academic knowledge through learning by teaching.
Students who practice thoughtfully are much more likely to retain the concepts of focus. StudyBuds encourages students to take ownership of their knowledge by ensuring it is imparted into an AI character and justifying any piece of information presented. Each character adapts its questions and challenges to the students level to deepen mastery and maintain rigor.
Yes, StudyBuds allows students to design their own characters, adding a personal touch to the learning experience. This feature makes learning more fun and engaging for young learners
