This is great stuff. I actually think the obvious application here is foreign language instruction. Particulary chinese character recognition for english speaking elementary students. Most teachers at that level will probably not have mastery of the language themselves. In addition, the "teacher agent" may be able to find patterns that would dramatically boost recall.
