Artificial Intelligence (AI) methods for education have been a topic of AI research since many decades with focus on Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS). ITS typically address a specific knowledge domain with a focus on individual learning support based on learning by problem solving, identification of misconceptions, and tailored feedback. Methods often are a combination of knowledge-based and machine learning approaches. Since the emergence of technologies based on Large Language Models (LLMs), the use of LLMs in educational contexts has received much attention, resulting in novel approaches.
The Second Workshop on Artificial Intelligence for Artificial Intelligence Education (AI4AILearning) has been held on September 24, 2024, in conjunction with the 47th German Conference on Artificial Intelligence in Würzburg, Germany. The workshop has a focus on research of AI methods for teaching AI competencies including programming skills. It provides a platform for exchange of ideas and experiences under the general theme of AI for education, specialising on university education in AI. The workshop includes interdisciplinary contributions from cognitive science and education technology.
