Research-Driven Learning Science

Leeteracy is built on decades of cognitive science research, ensuring every feature enhances learning outcomes

Grounded in Cognitive Science

Our platform leverages proven learning principles to maximize retention and comprehension

๐Ÿง 

Retrieval Practice

Active recall through quizzes strengthens memory pathways and improves long-term retention by up to 70%.

Research: Roediger & Karpicke, 2006; Brown et al., 2014
๐Ÿ”

Metacognition

AI tutor prompts students to reflect on their thinking process, building self-awareness and learning strategies.

Research: Flavell, 1979; Zimmerman, 2002; Winne & Azevedo, 2014
โšก

Timely Feedback

Immediate feedback within 24 hours improves learning outcomes by 40% compared to delayed feedback.

Research: Shute, 2008; Hattie & Timperley, 2007
๐ŸŽฏ

Spaced Repetition

Intelligent spacing of practice sessions optimizes memory consolidation and prevents forgetting.

Research: Ebbinghaus, 1885; Cepeda et al., 2006
๐Ÿค–

Guided AI Support

AI explanations and hints boost critical thinking 3x more than direct answer giving.

Research: Lee et al., 2024; Koedinger et al., 2013
๐Ÿ“Š

Learning Analytics

Data-driven insights help instructors identify struggling students and optimize content delivery.

Research: Siemens & Long, 2011; Gaลกeviฤ‡ et al., 2015

The Evidence Base

Current research supporting course-grounded AI tutoring approaches

๐Ÿ“ŠThe Challenge

90% of students use GenAI yet still feel underprepared for advanced work(Yang et al., 2024)

Only 40% of students receive timely feedback that can change outcomes(EDUCAUSE, 2024)

Institutions struggle with responsible AI policies in education(UNESCO, 2025)

๐Ÿ’กWhat Research Shows

Guided AI support boosts critical thinking 3x more than answer giving(Lee et al., 2024)

24-hour feedback improves retention by 40% compared to delayed feedback(Shute, 2008)

Applied practice doubles perceived career readiness(Gallup-Lumina, 2025)

How Leeteracy Applies the Evidence

Our platform implements research-backed features that enhance learning outcomes

1Course-Grounded Quizzes

Retrieval augmented generation (RAG) keeps MCQ and short-answer questions tied to your materials, reinforcing retrieval practice and contextual transfer.

2Instructor-in-the-Loop

You approve or edit questions before they reach students, maintaining academic rigor while leveraging AI for draft generation.

3Floating AI Tutor

Students can ask questions mid-quiz; answers cite your sources and scaffold thinking instead of giving away solutions.

4Proficiency Tracking

Every submission updates per-student and cohort scores so intervention is driven by real performance data, not anecdote.
