Enhancing Elementary Education in Multilingual Contexts: A Study on the Efficacy of the "StudyOva" Adaptive Learning Application

This research explores how multilingual educational technology can enhance learning outcomes in elementary classrooms. I developed StudyOva, an interactive web application that offers bilingual (Punjabi–English) tutoring and conversational support for students in Punjab, India. Forty students participated in a two-week experiment using the app, with pre- and post-tests showing significant improvement in Math (18%) and Science (15%) scores. Students demonstrated strong engagement with the multilingual chatbot and culturally relevant Sikhism module. The results highlight the value of culturally responsive and linguistically adaptive technology in improving educational equity.
