Norbert Pengel, Anne Martin, Roy Meissner, Tamar Arndt and, Alexander Tobias Neumann, Peter de Lange, Heinz-Werner Wollersheim

TL;DR
TecCoBot is a technology-enhanced chatbot designed to support self-regulated learning by providing automated feedback and structured activities, especially useful for remote self-study during times like a pandemic.
Contribution
The paper introduces TecCoBot, a novel chatbot system that facilitates self-study activities with pedagogical interventions and automated feedback, expanding support beyond traditional face-to-face mentoring.
Findings
TecCoBot effectively supports students in reading and writing tasks.
Automated feedback improves student engagement and learning outcomes.
The system is adaptable for remote and digital learning environments.
Abstract
In addition to formal learning at universities, like in lecture halls and seminar rooms, students are regularly confronted with self-study activities. Instead of being left to their own devices, students might benefit from a proper design of such activities, including pedagogical interventions. Such designs can increase the degree of activity and the contribution of self-study activities to the achievement of learning outcomes. Especially in times of a global pandemic, self-study activities are increasingly executed at home, where students already use technology-enhanced materials, processes, and digital platforms. Thus we pick up these building blocks and introduce TecCoBot within this paper. TecCoBot is not only a chatbot, supporting students in reading texts by offering writing assignments and providing automated feedback on these, but also implements a design for self-study…
