With the breakthrough advancements in generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) technology, GenAI-powered pedagogical agents (GenAI-PA) are emerging as a transformative paradigm shift in education. However, there is still debate about whether the use of GenAI-PA is beneficial for learners’ academic performance. Therefore, this study conducted a meta-analysis of 27 experimental and quasi-experimental studies from 2015 to 2025. The results showed that (1) GenAI-PA had a significant effect on learners’ academic pe…
The gain
A meta-analysis of 27 experimental and quasi-experimental studies found that learners who used generative AI pedagogical agents scored higher on academic performance, with a pooled effect size of g = 0.401.

How to check it yourself, without trusting this page
Download any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-2825 and hash its canonical field yourself, for example with shasum -a 256. You should get its content_hash. Each version’s text also ends with prev:and the hash of the version before it (version 1 points to 64 zeros). If anyone had changed a single character of any version after it was saved, those hashes wouldn’t line up.
