training the learner in more effectiveways to interpret that information. This has a direct parallel to the collegiate classroom, as instruc-tors aim to inspire mastery over a topic to their students through a variety of methods (homeworkproblems, examinations, projects, etc.) and teach them the corresponding skillsets from feedbackon these assignments. Machine Teaching (MT) research, on the other hand, aims at making theteacher more productive by using their own cognitive models to improve the quality of the dataholistically. Again, this has a corresponding counterpart to current teaching pedagogies; the in-structor decides on the details of an assignment from their own knowledge and experience withthe end goal of having students retain the
