Abstract: The present disclosure provides computer-implemented methods, systems, and devices for generating multistep explanations for pedagogical exercises. A computing device receives a query from a user. The computing device determines that the query includes query data describing a pedagogical exercise to be solved. The computing device provides the query data as input to an explanatory machine-learned model. The computing device receives, as output from the explanatory machine-learned model, a pedagogical response, the pedagogical response including a multi-step explanation of a solution to the pedagogical exercise. The computing device provides the pedagogical response for display to a user.
