## The "One Size Fits All" Problem
Traditional education forces students to learn at the same pace. AI offers a way out, but only if designed correctly.
### Knowledge Graphs + LLMs
By mapping curriculum concepts into a knowledge graph and using LLMs to generate explanations, we can create a tutor that understands *why* a student is stuck.
- **Diagnosis**: Is it a conceptual gap or a calculation error?
- **Adaptation**: Explain it with a sports analogy if the student loves soccer.
- **Scaffolding**: Provide hints, not just answers.
### The Role of the Teacher
AI doesn't replace teachers; it gives them superpowers. By automating grading and basic remediation, teachers can focus on mentorship and complex problem-solving.
