[0002] Teaching students/pupils how to solve exercises or problems in math or physics, for example, is challenging. Teachers usually teach solving techniques by demonstrating solving of one or more exercises/problems of the same type, expecting the students to follow the exemplary solutions and deduce the solution technique for other exercises/problems of the same type. id="p-3" id="p-3" id="p-3" id="p-3" id="p-3" id="p-3" id="p-3" id="p-3" id="p-3" id="p-3" id="p-3" id="p-3" id="p-3"
[0003] Many students struggle with this attitude and require many expensive and time-consuming hours with another person such as private teachers to help them practice the newly taught techniques.
