Title: Ceci n'est pas une explication: Evaluating Explanation Failures as Explainability Pitfalls in Language Learning Systems

Abstract:
arXiv:2604.26145v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: AI-powered language learning tools increasingly provide instant, personalised feedback to millions of learners worldwide. However, this feedback can fail in ways that are difficult for learners--and even teachers--to detect, potentially reinforcing misconceptions and eroding learning outcomes over extended use. We present a portion of L2-Bench, a benchmark for evaluating AI systems in language education that includes (but is not limited to) six c
