# Intelligent Tutoring Dialogue Designer

## What This Skill Does

Designs the dialogue logic for an AI tutoring interaction — when to ask a question, when to give a hint, when to explain, when to prompt for self-explanation, and when to stay silent. This is the hardest design problem in intelligent tutoring: too much intervention prevents productive struggle and creates dependency; too little leaves students stuck and frustrated. VanLehn (2011) showed that the effectiveness of tutoring (human or AI) depends on the quality of the step-level interaction — systems that engage students in active reasoning at each step dramatically outperform systems that simply present content and evaluate final
