Selection

Fresh independent work can move toward Core, Transfer, or Challenge routes; help use or confusion keeps support visible.

Help

Hints keep attention on the visible structure; reveals show the path without counting as independent evidence.

Presentation

Presentation can reduce reading and interaction load without changing the selected skill. Practice focus can bias compatible work without breaking prerequisites or story fit.

Story fit

  • episodes where a visible rule generates later terms, states, positions, or counts
