What problem does it solve?

Place-based curriculum planning often starts with a place or requirement but lacks an explicit pathway choice, resulting in a forced fit, unclear learning logic, or weak alignment between inquiry, knowledge, and assessment.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Pathway options first: Presents multiple place-based curriculum routes (place-first, curriculum-first, critical place, ecological inquiry, and place + systems) with tradeoffs and when-not-to-use guidance.
• Best-fit recommendation: Recommends a pathway based on inputs like learner stage, starting point, local place, constraints, and optional pathway choice.
• Orchestrated design chain: Produces an end-to-end teacher-usable curriculum design sequence once a pathway is selected (or as provisional if a full design is requested).
• Safety and validity gatekeeping: Includes stop/slow checks for place integrity, cultural humility, student action sequencing, and assessment validity.

Quick Start

Ask the skill to design a place-based curriculum from your local place by providing your starting point, learner stage, and any curriculum requirements, and include your desired pathway if you already know it.
