UI Remix supports interface design through interactive retrieval and remixing of design examples.

Community-Enriched AI connects coding assistance with resources and social interactions from online communities to support learning and community participation.

We investigate how teachers can guide AI generation of mathematical visuals to meet instructional needs.

GeoDial pairs geometry tutoring conversations with instructional diagram highlights to support the development of multimodal tutoring systems.

LFTutor combines Socratic questioning and critical argumentation to help learners identify logical fallacies and reflect on their reasoning.

We investigate why vision-language models struggle to count beyond training distributions, tracing failures to the mapping from visual quantities to symbolic numbers.

SPARC separates visual perception from reasoning, enabling independent allocation of inference-time computation to each stage.

Math2Visual generates instructional illustrations for math word problems and provides a benchmark for evaluating educational image generation.

We examine how counting, object recognition, and symbolic reasoning affect vision-language models when solving equations represented by images.

DBox supports algorithmic programming practice by helping learners decompose problems collaboratively with an LLM.

We propose a framework for generating synthetic teacher-student interactions grounded in a set of textbooks and build a dataset based on it.

We examine how voting methods and decision-making contexts influence perceived legitimacy.

This paper analyzes global academic responses to the COVID-19 pandemic, examining publication patterns, research focus, and scientific collaborations, and highlights the dynamic, country-specific responses and the importance of a diverse knowledge base in addressing pandemic-related challenges.

This study examines how different voting rules affect citizens’ perception of legitimacy in a democratic government, underscoring the importance of how preferences are expressed and considered in political decision-making.
