# 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.

## 🎯 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)**.
