System Documentation
What problem does it solve?
Build and deliver task-specific metacognitive prompts to help students think about thinking — planning, monitoring, evaluating, and debugging — without prescribing the exact thoughts.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Generates calibrated metacognitive prompts matched to a specific task, student level, and focus (planning, monitoring, evaluating, debugging).
- Provides a teacher-facing script and a student prompt card to model and scaffold metacognitive thinking.
- Supports context-rich prompts with optional subject area, student profiles, and task phase to tailor prompts for different classroom scenarios.
- Includes guidance on evidence-based principles and metacognitive maturity levels to calibrate prompts for low, moderate, or high awareness.
- Enables chaining with related educator tools (e.g., self-regulation tools, study-strategy selectors or related prompts).
Quick Start
Generate a ready-to-use set of metacognitive prompts tailored to a specific task description, student level, and focus, including before, during, and after-task prompts.
