Humanoid AI teaching assistant for STEM education and personalized learning support
Sally is a humanoid robot and AI-powered teaching assistant deployed by the Salamanca City Central School District in Western New York. Standing 5 feet 8 inches tall with silicone skin and long brown hair, Sally is designed to provide learning support to students and educators without replacing classroom teachers. The robot operates on a closed network, is loaded with district-approved curriculum, and remains seated while capable of upper-body movements and facial expressions. Students interact with Sally using unique ID numbers, allowing the robot to provide personalized support based on learning history. Sally is complemented by Optio, an AI platform accessible on laptops and phones for 24/7 homework help and extended learning. The system includes safeguards against misinformation and inappropriate content, operates under full district oversight, and does not collect personally identifiable student information or record audio/video.

Get the most out of it
01Leverage Sally's personalized learning feature by having students use consistent ID numbers to maintain continuity of past learning conversations and build on prior discussions.

03Implement Sally's 24/7 avatar access on student devices to extend learning beyond school hours, particularly valuable for students in underserved communities without access to private tutoring.
04Establish clear guidelines with students about using Sally for learning support rather than answer shortcuts, emphasizing the importance of understanding concepts rather than just getting answers.
05Monitor student interactions and regularly assess engagement patterns to identify students who may need additional human teacher support or are forming unhealthy dependencies on the AI assistant.
