In a pilot across 50 primary schools, humanoid droid tutors were deployed to assist students struggling with fractions. Over six months, the droids reduced the "math anxiety" index by 40%. The droids used a technique called "somatic learning"—having students physically walk a number line while the droid moved beside them—which improved test scores by 32% compared to a control group.
