Abstract:
There is an increasing demand for personalized and interactive learning experiences in Computer Science (CS) education, which can be fulfilled with the usage of Large Language Models (LLMs). This research proposes the creation of an AI-based CS tutor and Auto Quiz generator application with multimodal functionalities. The application features a chatbot interface that enables users to interact with the AI tutor, creating an immersive and dynamic learning environment which adheres to the principles of GMS (Growth Mindset). In addition to the chatbot functionality, the system includes an auto quiz generator designed to create quizzes dynamically based on the knowledge base. Users have the flexibility to customize quiz topics they want to cover, as well as receive instant feedback from the application, leveraging LLMs to return meaningful responses to the student. The enhancement of user engagement and accessibility will also be explored, as we are looking to integrate multimodal functionalities into the CS tutor and quiz generator.
