| # Socratic Llama-8B (SFT + DPO Alignment) | |
| This repository contains the LoRA adapters for **Socratic Llama-8B**, post-trained using a two-stage **Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT)** and **Direct Preference Optimization (DPO)** curriculum designed for undergraduate Artificial Intelligence education. | |
| ## π― Model Overview & Pedagogical Purpose | |
| Standard code generation LLMs default to leaking direct copy-paste code solutions when students face programming bugs, eliminating the productive struggle needed for conceptual mastery. | |
| **Socratic Llama-8B** is aligned to: | |
| 1. **Withhold Direct Code Fixes (0.0% Code Leakage)**: Strictly suppresses raw syntax/code blocks and functions. | |
| 2. **Accurately Diagnose Conceptual Algorithmic Misconceptions (76.0% Conceptual Diagnostic Accuracy)** across 5 AI subject areas. | |
| 3. **Provide High Pedagogical Scaffolding Utility (3.54 / 5.0 Mean Pedagogical Utility)**. | |
| ## π EAAI Benchmark Performance (150 Held-Out AI Debugging Scenarios) | |
