abstract: >-
  Implementing control and machine learning algorithms in
  MATLAB and Simulink is a critical competency in advanced
  control engineering. While immediate feedback is essential
  for fostering intuitive understanding, it is traditionally
  constrained to scheduled exercise sessions or consultation
  hours. To bridge this gap, this project introduces an
  open-source intelligent tutoring platform that provides
  continuous, on-demand feedback.To accommodate diverse
  solution strategies, the platform employs a hybrid
  evaluation strategy combining result-based and code-based
  metrics. This ensures that valid alternative solutions
  that differ from predefined sample solutions are not
  misclassified. In case of incorrect solutions, a Large
  Language Model, contextualized with sample solutions and
  task classification results, offers auxiliary support for
  students struggling to initiate or complete tasks.
  Instructional scaffolding is adaptively adjusted to guide
  students toward independent problem-solving. We position
  this platform as a supplementary tool designed to enhance,
  rather than replace, valuable interactions between
  students and human tutors. Built on open-source tools, the
  system is architected for reusability, enabling lecturers
  across engineering subjects to adapt the framework to
  their teaching needs easily.
