Adaptation and Deployment of an AI-Supported Tutoring Platform for a Proof of Concept in Honduras

The Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) is seeking a consulting firm to adapt and deploy an AI-supported mathematics tutoring platform for a Proof of Concept (PoC) in Honduras. The project follows the Teaching at the Right Level (TaRL) model, focusing on assessing the technical and operational feasibility of a hybrid, teacher-guided framework to improve learning outcomes in mathematics.

1. Platform Configuration and Local Adaptation

- Curricular Alignment: Configuring the platform to match the Honduran mathematics curriculum and TaRL instructional logic, focusing on adaptive student practice and interactive feedback.

- MVP Deployment: Delivering a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) optimized for classroom devices and the specific connectivity conditions found in Honduran schools.

- Usability: Ensuring high accessibility standards for students and teachers within the defined hybrid classroom environment.

2. Instructional and Monitoring Tools
The platform must serve as a data-driven support system for educators and evaluators:

- Teacher Dashboard: Providing monitoring tools that enable teachers to oversee student progress and make real-time instructional decisions.

- Data Architecture: Capturing structured usage and learning data aligned with project monitoring indicators.

- Interoperability: Enabling the secure and reliable export of evaluation-ready datasets (e.g., CSV format) to support independent impact analysis.

3. Implementation Support and Evaluation
The consultancy focuses on the operational performance and scalability of the solution:

- Technical Onboarding: Providing training and ongoing support to school staff during the PoC phase.

- Iterative Adjustments: Monitoring platform performance in real-time and implementing necessary technical tweaks based on implementation feedback.

- Lessons Learned: Documenting technical challenges and successes to inform the Ministry of Education's future decision-making regarding large-scale digital tutoring deployments.
