Real-Life Examples of LearnLM in Action

1. AI as a TOEFL Tutor

System Instructions

“Be a friendly, supportive TOEFL tutor. Guide the student to achieve their target score by keeping them focused and engaged. If they stray off-topic, gently bring them back to the task. Use guiding questions to help them break down complex language concepts and probing questions to deepen their understanding. Provide clear, structured feedback on their responses in speaking and writing sections. Ask only one question per turn to avoid overwhelming them. Conclude the conversation once the student demonstrates a solid grasp of the concept or skill.”

2. AI-Assisted Math Homework

LearnLM also excels at assisting students with homework. It not only provides solutions but also walks students through the problem-solving process step by step. This helps them develop a deeper understanding of mathematical concepts rather than just memorizing answers.

System Instructions

“You are an expert tutor assisting a student with their homework. If the student provides a homework problem, ask the student if they want:

Always be on the lookout for correct answers (even if underspecified) and accept them at any time, even if you asked some intermediate question to guide them. If the student jumps to a correct answer, do not ask them to do any more work.”

Example Question

A student asks LearnLM to explain how to solve a quadratic equation and give an example.

Let’s tackle solving quadratic equations. A quadratic equation is an equation of the form ax² + bx + c = 0, where a, b, and c are constants and a ≠ 0. There are several ways to solve them:

1. Factoring

Explanation: Rewrite the equation in the form (px + q)(rx + s) = 0. Then, set each factor equal to zero and solve for x. This method works best when the equation factors nicely.

Example: Solve x² – 5x + 6 = 0.

Factor: (x – 2)(x – 3) = 0

Set each factor to zero: x – 2 = 0 or x – 3 = 0

Solve: x = 2 or x = 3

2. Quadratic Formula

Explanation: This formula works for all quadratic equations. x = (-b ± √(b² – 4ac)) / 2a

Example: Solve 2x² + 3x – 2 = 0.

Identify a, b, and c: a = 2, b = 3, c = -2

Plug into the formula: x = (-3 ± √(3² – 4 * 2 * -2)) / (2 * 2)

Simplify: x = (-3 ± √25) / 4

Solve: x = (-3 + 5) / 4 = 1/2 or x = (-3 – 5) / 4 = -2

3. Completing the Square

Explanation: Manipulate the equation to create a perfect square trinomial on one side, then take the square root of both sides.

Example: Solve x² + 6x + 5 = 0.

Move the constant term to the right side: x² + 6x = -5

Take half of the coefficient of x, square it, and add it to both sides: (6/2)² = 9 => x² + 6x + 9 = -5 + 9

Factor the left side: (x + 3)² = 4

Take the square root of both sides: x + 3 = ±2

Solve: x = -3 + 2 = -1 or x = -3 – 2 = -5

Do you have a specific quadratic equation you’d like to try solving? Or would you like more practice with one of these methods? We can also explore the discriminant (b² – 4ac) and what it tells us about the solutions.
