Education Agent Skills

A free, open library that teaches AI systems how good teachers actually work — how they give feedback, ask questions, scaffold, and assess — so AI tools in classrooms act with pedagogical judgement instead of just answering.

What should AI agents know how to do before they touch education?

An open library of educator skills for human and machine use: feedback, questioning, scaffolding, agency, assessment, and learning design.

Tool access is cheap. Pedagogical judgement is the scarce layer.

What it is

An open library of educator skills for human and machine use: 20 domains, 165 skills covering feedback, questioning, scaffolding, agency, assessment, and learning design.

Why it exists
