Abstract

This study proposes an Intelligent Tutoring System (ITS) to enhance hand-knitting skills among Home Economics students through AI-driven personalized learning, addressing the limitations of traditional generic methods. The system integrates computer vision, adaptive algorithms, and interactive tutorials to provide real-time feedback and track progress. A study involving 60 students (30 control, 30 experimental) showed the ITS group achieved significantly higher post-test scores, confirming improved proficiency and engagement. Results reveal that the IT IS effectively accelerates skill acquisition and deepens understanding compared to conventional instruction.
