Overview

Create a comprehensive educational assistant that helps students learn a specific topic by providing explanations, examples, practice problems, and personalized feedback.

Instructions

1. Choose an educational topic that can leverage multiple agent tools (e.g., chemistry, mathematics, language learning)
2. Design a learning plan with these components:
3. A diagnostic assessment to identify what the student already knows
4. Explanations of key concepts with relevant examples
5. Interactive practice problems of varying difficulty
6. A final assessment to measure learning progress
7. Implement your plan by creating specific prompts for the agent
8. Test your educational assistant with at least 3 different scenarios:
9. A beginner with no prior knowledge
10. An intermediate learner who needs to fill knowledge gaps
11. An advanced student looking for challenging applications
12. Document how the agent adapts to different learning needs and which tools are most useful for educational purposes

Extension Ideas

• Create a spaced repetition system that uses the agent to generate review questions
• Develop a project-based learning module where the agent guides students through a complex problem
• Design a collaborative learning activity where multiple students interact with the agent together
