Learning

A learning environment that grades understanding instead of homework. Students look at a visual for a concept, explain it in a chat with an agent, and the agent grades how well they understand it.

• Subjects – listed in subjects.md. High school covers the core curriculum; college covers only true STEM plus philosophy and theoretical physics. Subjects are kept large where possible.
• Concepts – each subject has 5–7 concepts in subjects/<level>/<subject>.md, foundations first.
• Grade – every concept gets a grade from 0 to 100. The agent decides when it has chatted enough to grade; until then the grade stays —. The rules for each subject are set while we test it and written into that subject's Grading rules section.
• Key ideas – what the agent listens for in a student's explanation of each concept.
• Visual – each concept gets one simple, silent visual showing a single idea in motion, like a circle unrolling into π. The student explains it. All visuals and outside resources are tracked in resources.md.
• Connections – connections.md puts every subject on a track and shows what each track rolls up to: the String Theory and Computers & AI capstones, or modern health. Alternatives are in track-options.md.
• Movie – later, each subject gets a movie built from its concept visuals, following its track in connections.md.

Remaining work is in TODO.md.

Draft. Concepts are written for eight subjects so we can align on the format before doing the rest:
