Adaptive Diagnostics for Customized Learning Pathways of Students in the Mathematical Structure of Observed Learning Outcomes

Think of this as an automated math tutor that watches how a student answers questions, figures out exactly what level of understanding they are at, and then routes them onto the best next learning path instead of giving the same fixed lesson to everyone.

Executive Brief

Business Problem Solved

Traditional teaching and testing treat most students the same, failing to adapt to each learner’s actual level of understanding. This system uses machine learning to diagnose where a student sits in the SOLO taxonomy (structure of observed learning outcomes) and then recommends customized learning pathways, reducing time wasted on too-easy or too-hard content and improving learning outcomes.

Value Drivers

Higher learning outcomes via personalized learning pathsReduced teacher workload for diagnosis and remediation planningFaster identification of struggling or advanced studentsMore efficient use of instructional time and digital contentData-driven insight into cohort performance and curriculum gaps

Differentiation Factor

Instead of generic ‘adaptive learning’ that only reacts to right/wrong answers, this approach explicitly anchors predictions to the SOLO taxonomy of learning outcomes, allowing finer-grained diagnosis of conceptual depth and alignment with pedagogical theory when constructing customized learning pathways.
