ArXi:2605.04761v1 Announce Type: cross This paper presents the Personalized Thinking Model (PTM), a hierarchical and interpretable learner representation designed for AI ed education. PTM organizes evidence from learner journals into a five-layer structure covering behavioral instances, behavioral patterns, cognitive routines, metacognitive tendencies, and self-system values. PTM is grounded in Marzano's New Taxonomy of Educational Objectives and tries to clone learner's thinking model and build cognitive twin.
