Hands-on learning in a repository workspace replaces lectures by guiding learners through small, real-file tasks with iterative checks. It uses actual repository files for practical practice and verifies understanding before advancing to the next concept.

Track learning progress and resume sessions by capturing the learning state in files like LEARNING.md. This progress persistence mechanism allows mentorship sessions to be paused and resumed across different milestones without losing context.

Workspace-based instruction applies to technical topics where progress is demonstrated through small tasks and real files. It tailors the pace by defining a learning objective and baseline before introducing one concept at a time.

Set up incremental checks for learning-by-doing by introducing one concept at a time and verifying understanding before advancing. This ensures learners demonstrate comprehension through practical tasks inside the repository workspace.

Hands-on teaching requires defining a learning objective and baseline to tailor the pace before starting. Without this initial goal-setting, mentorship sessions cannot effectively coordinate incremental steps or track progress across milestones.
