🌟 Features

• Adaptive Teaching: Teaching agents that can:

  • Generate dynamic curricula based on student performance
  • Monitor and evaluate learning progress
  • Adjust teaching strategies in real-time
  • Infer learning difficulties and adapt accordingly

• Intelligent Learning: Student agents that:

  • Process and understand provided curricula
  • Learn from structured teaching sequences
  • Provide feedback on learning progress
  • Adapt to different teaching styles

• Dynamic Environment: A flexible task environment that:

  • Supports varying levels of task complexity
  • Provides meaningful feedback
  • Enables curriculum-based difficulty adjustment
  • Simulates real-world learning scenarios
