有效教学需根据学生多样化的认知与行为特征调整策略,这是教育与教师培训中的长期挑战。尽管大语言模型(LLMs)有望模拟此类复杂教学环境,但现有仿真框架存在两大局限:(1) 常将学生简化为静态知识状态;(2) 缺乏教师依据学生反馈动态调整策略的机制。为此,我们提出一种新仿真框架,集成基于LLM的异构学生代理与自优化教师代理。教师代理的授课策略通过遗传算法动态演化,依据多样化学习者的整体表现发现并优化有效教学方法。此外,我们提出Persona-RAG——一种检索增强生成模块,使学生代理能根据个体学习风格检索定制化知识。Persona-RAG在保持标准RAG检索准确性的基础上提升了个性化水平,是构建真实教育场景的关键。大量实验表明,该框架在面对不同学生群体时,能涌现出清晰可解释的教学模式。结果凸显了基于LLM的仿真在推动自适应教学实践方面的潜力,并为人类教师提供受控、数据驱动的训练平台。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Effective teaching requires adapting instructional strategies to accommodate the diverse cognitive and behavioral profiles of students, a persistent challenge in education and teacher training. While Large Language Models (LLMs) offer promise as tools to simulate such complex pedagogical environments, current simulation frameworks are limited in two key respects: (1) they often reduce students to static knowledge profiles, and (2) they lack adaptive mechanisms for modeling teachers who evolve their strategies in response to student feedback. To address these gaps, \textbf{we introduce a novel simulation framework that integrates LLM-based heterogeneous student agents with a self-optimizing teacher agent}. The teacher agent's pedagogical policy is dynamically evolved using a genetic algorithm, allowing it to discover and refine effective teaching strategies based on the aggregate performance of diverse learners. In addition, \textbf{we propose Persona-RAG}, a Retrieval Augmented Generation module that enables student agents to retrieve knowledge tailored to their individual learning styles. Persona-RAG preserves the retrieval accuracy of standard RAG baselines while enhancing personalization, an essential factor in modeling realistic educational scenarios. Through extensive experiments, we demonstrate how our framework supports the emergence of distinct and interpretable teaching patterns when interacting with varied student populations. Our results highlight the potential of LLM-driven simulations to inform adaptive teaching practices and provide a testbed for training human educators in controlled, data-driven environments.
