Exploring Human-AI Control Over Dynamic Transitions Between Individual and Collaborative Learning

摘要

Dynamically transitioning between individual and collaborative learning activities during a class session (i.e., in an un-planned way, as-the-need-arises) has advantages for students, but existing orchestration tools are not designed to support such transitions. This work reports findings from a technology probe study that explored alternative designs for classroom co-orchestration support for dynamically transitioning between individual and collaborative learning, focused on how control over the transitions should be divided or shared among teachers, students, and orchestration system. This study involved 1) a pilot in an authentic classroom scenario with AI support for individual and collaborative learning; and 2) design workshops and interviews with students and teachers. Findings from the study suggest the need for hybrid control between students, teachers, and AI systems over transitions as well as for adaptivity and/or adaptability for different classrooms, teachers, and students' prior knowledge. This study is the first to explore human-AI control over dynamic transitions between individual and collaborative learning in actual classrooms.
