A middle school teacher feels helpless and inadequate because despite providing accommodations, extra time, and modified assignments, a severely behind student still refuses to engage and is failing.

Existing accommodations are generic and teacher-dispensed, lacking real-time adaptive tools that track student engagement, adjust difficulty automatically, and provide self-directed motivation without constant teacher proximity.
