To make an education interface ADHD-friendly, reduce cognitive load by enforcing executive-function guardrails like the 3-2-1 question sequencing rule, brain breaks every 4 questions, and warm amber wrong-answer feedback. This protects working memory and learning persistence.

A count-up timer for ADHD homework modules prevents the anxiety and cognitive overload triggered by visible time pressure. It protects executive-function bandwidth during question answering, with a countdown timer exception only permitted for Fact Sprint speed flows.

Auditing live wiring requires verifying actual implemented hooks like HomeworkModule cadence against the 3-2-1 chunking rule and brain-break frequency. This distinguishes aspirational configuration from operational enforcement and prevents relying on generic accessibility advice.

The 3-2-1 rule for ADHD question sequencing is an operational gate that chunks same-type questions to reduce cognitive load. Enforcing this pattern in daily missions and homework modules protects executive function bandwidth and sustains engagement.

Warm amber wrong-answer feedback works better than red for ADHD students because it avoids triggering emotional dysregulation. Replacing harsh red with warm amber is an explicit anti-pattern prohibition that maintains attention without punitive emotional spikes.

You need to enforce brain breaks every 4 questions during education question answering to restore executive-function bandwidth. This pacing constraint applies across homework, daily missions, and investigation modules to prevent attention fatigue and support learning persistence.
