Tone & Empathy Monitoring: Evaluate the AI’s "non-judgmental" persona. Ensure the feedback encourages a growth mindset and manages a student’s "productive struggle" effectively.
Content Mapping: Oversee the mapping of our Curriculum to ensure the difficulty progression is academically sound.
LMS Integrity: Review the structure of lessons within the LMS to ensure logical flow, concept scaffolding, and comprehensive coverage of learning objectives.
Knowledge Graph Refinement: Work with the engineering team to refine the "Concept Graph," ensuring the AI understands which foundational concepts a student is missing based on their mistakes.
SME Input for Engineering: Translate complex teaching methodologies into actionable insights for AI prompt engineers. (e.g., "In this Calculus problem, the AI should prompt for the Chain Rule here instead of simplifying the constant.")
Gap Analysis: Identify areas where the AI fails to understand non-standard student approaches or creative problem-solving techniques.
Efficacy Research: Help design and monitor "learning gain" metrics and measure if students are actually learning
Academic Background: PhD, Assistant Professor, or Senior Professorship in Physics, Engineering, or Mathematics with 5+ years of teaching experience.
Tech-Forward: While you don't need to code, you must be comfortable using AI tools and have an intuitive grasp of how LLMs interact with technical content.
