This National Science Foundation (NSF) IUSE:EDU Level 1 project, funded under the STEM Education (CFDA 47.076) program, aims to develop design principles for creating educational tools powered by generative artificial intelligence (AI) to support personalized learning in STEM education. The $286,917 project, set to run from October 1, 2025 to September 30, 2028, will focus on developing a "CoachBot" tool that leverages the proposed education-informed design principles. The CoachBot will be tested in computing-focused courses at the University of Michigan and University of Cincinnati to evaluate its efficacy in enhancing student learning and developing computational thinking skills. The project team plans to synthesize existing literature, conduct learning analytics, student interviews, and surveys to document current practices and extract preliminary design principles for AI-powered educational tools.
