WORKING RHYTHM
One design per concept; return after a revision or learner pilot.
01 / WHAT IS THIS?
What is
Curriculum Studio?
Turn a concept into a learning interaction you can examine.
Curriculum Studio is a working environment for curriculum writers who need to connect an idea, a learner action, and the evidence that action could produce. Develop a focused design, rehearse it, and keep your decisions together in a private project.
A work product you can review.
An editable learning design, saved versions, rehearsal observations, and an exportable JSON workspace. Optional AI contributions remain available for your review.
02 / WHY WE BUILT IT
Why does this
solution exist?
A clear explanation is only part of a learning design. You also need to decide what a learner will do, which conditions matter, and what would count as meaningful evidence. We built the studio to make those decisions visible before a design becomes a lesson, chapter, or course.
WHY YOU WOULD USE IT
How does it help your work?
Use it when a draft sounds convincing but you cannot yet describe how someone would demonstrate understanding. The studio helps you examine that gap and prepare a design for subject review.
03 / YOUR PROFESSIONAL ASSISTANT
How does it help as
your professional assistant?
These are the roles of the current workspace. See what the assistant contributes and which decisions remain yours.
| Professional task | How the tool helps | Your role |
|---|---|---|
| Clarify the learning relationship | The workspace organizes purpose, action, foundation, context, evidence, and AI permissions. | You decide what matters for this learner and subject. |
| Develop and challenge the draft | Optional AI can propose an interaction, write an explanation, or stress-test the saved design. | You inspect each contribution and choose whether to apply it. |
| Preserve the evidence of design decisions | Versions and observations remain connected to the project. | You decide whether the design is ready for a learner pilot. |
04 / HOW THE SYSTEM WORKS
How does the system work?
The input defines the scope. The work product makes the result inspectable. Your review determines what happens next.
Define the learning relationship
Connect a concept to a learner action, a supporting explanation, and conditions for offering it.
Rehearse an accepted invitation
Try a supplied reference relationship or record an author-defined response. Keep assistance and changed conditions attached.
Turn observations into a revision
Review the evidence, inspect optional AI contributions, and keep the design version you choose to develop.
05 / HOW TO USE IT, STEP BY STEP
How do you use it,
step by step?
A first working session can focus on one concept and one learner action. The time needed depends on the source material and your review requirements.
Follow the steps in order, keeping this guide available beside your workspace.
Open Curriculum Studio- 01
Purpose & scope: define one concept
Choose a Relationship. Set the audience, learner purpose, observable action, and entry explanation. Use a narrow idea from a chapter, course, or brief.
YOU LEAVE THIS STEP WITHA focused learning design with a clear action. - 02
Context & timing: check the conditions
Describe the material intentionally shared for this rehearsal. Check that learning mode is enabled and the learner is available.
YOU LEAVE THIS STEP WITHConditions under which an invitation can be offered. - 03
AI collaboration: review the roles
Choose what AI may explain, calculate, or propose. Select “Mark collaboration rules reviewed.” Paid AI is optional; you can complete the rehearsal without generating anything.
YOU LEAVE THIS STEP WITHReviewed responsibilities for the design. - 04
Learning moment: rehearse the invitation
Confirm that the material was intentionally shared. Select “Check the invitation,” then “Accept invitation.” Enter a response and select “Check & record.”
YOU LEAVE THIS STEP WITHA response recorded with its conditions and any support used. - 05
Evidence: examine the response
Inspect the response, conditions, and recorded support. Change one condition and start a fresh invitation to examine another case.
YOU LEAVE THIS STEP WITHObservations for design review, without claiming measured learning gains. - 06
Review & versions: keep the work
Review the design checks. Choose “Save version” and “Export workspace.” Sign in and choose “Save project” to keep a private account copy.
YOU LEAVE THIS STEP WITHA reviewable version and a portable workspace file. - 07
Optional: use the AI writing partner
Open Billing to review your spending limit and buy credits through Stripe checkout. Return to the studio, save the project, and choose “Develop the design,” “Write an explanation,” or “Stress-test the design.” Review the maximum reservation before confirming.
YOU LEAVE THIS STEP WITHA saved AI contribution that you inspect before applying. Save the project again after accepting changes.
06 / A CONCRETE EXAMPLE
A price rises, then falls.
A writer is explaining successive percentage changes. A learner assumes that +20% and −20% return a price to its starting value.
Illustrative scenario · No measured outcome claimTHE WORK PRODUCT
Start at 100. A 20% increase produces 120; a 20% decrease then removes 24, leaving 96. Ask which base the second change uses. Next, try a 25% increase followed by a 20% decrease: this returns to 100. Compare the explanations and record any support used.
THE PROFESSIONAL DECISION
Keep the numerical relationship explicit. A correct rehearsal answer is evidence about that response, not proof of lasting understanding.
07 / WHEN AND WHERE TO USE IT
When, where,
and how often?
Choose a moment where the output supports a decision you already need to make.
Recognize the right moment.
- A learning objective is clear but the learner action is vague.
- A subject reviewer needs to see assumptions and evidence together.
- You are revising a lesson after observing confusing responses.
Keep your professional context.
- During curriculum planning and chapter development.
- Alongside the documents or authoring environment where you create final materials.
- In a writer–reviewer discussion or a carefully scoped learner pilot.
Use it when the work changes.
Start with one focused design per concept. Return when the audience, learning relationship, explanation, or evidence changes. Run AI when you have a specific writing or review task; there is no requirement to generate repeatedly.
Suggested working practice, not a subscription requirement or outcome guarantee.08 / WHAT WILL YOU PAY?
How much
will you pay?
One credit equals $0.01 USD. Packs are $10 for 1,000 credits, $25 for 2,500, and $50 for 5,000, plus applicable tax shown at checkout. Before an AI task, review its maximum reservation. The final charge uses reported provider token usage multiplied by five: $1 of provider token cost becomes $5 of service usage; unused reserved credits return to your wallet. Billing applies a shared $50 default total cap or your chosen cap. Every $50 requires renewed approval, including when the total cap is higher. Past spending remains counted.
AN ILLUSTRATION, NOT A PER-TASK QUOTE
Manage credits & spendingSee platform pricing and plan status $0.02 provider cost × 5 = $0.10 service usage
That would use 10 shared AI credits. Actual tasks vary with the model, input, and confirmed output usage.
09 / WHAT SHOULD YOU EXPECT?
What can you expect
from this release?
A useful assistant has clear responsibilities. These boundaries help you decide whether this solution fits the task in front of you.
- The studio does not produce a finished book, lesson pack, or SCORM package automatically.
- Custom responses need human review; automatic checks cover the supplied relationships.
- Live shared editing and independent verification of learner identity are not included.
Your material remains your responsibility. Use sources, writing samples, and assets you are entitled to use. Keep professional review matched to the significance of the work.
10 / PRACTICAL QUESTIONS
What else
should you know?
Still deciding how this fits your project? Bring the actual brief to a conversation with our team.
Ask about your projectDo I need to pay to start?
No. You can design, rehearse, save projects, and export without buying AI credits. Sign-in is required for account-backed saving.
What can I rehearse today?
Choose successive percentage changes, revenue/costs/capacity, claims and evidence, or an author-defined relationship. The supplied relationships have reference checks. An author-defined response and free-form reasoning need human evaluation.
Where is my work saved?
Without sign-in, work stays in the current session unless you select “Save on this device” or export a workspace file. Device storage is shared with anyone using that browser profile. Sign in to save private projects and reopen them across devices. Save the project after rehearsal changes or applying an AI proposal.
Is the $50 limit free credit?
No. Paid AI uses purchased credits. The default $50 is a cumulative spending limit shared by Curriculum AI and Encounter AI. It does not reset monthly. Change it in Billing, or set $0 to pause new paid tasks. A higher limit still requires approval before each $50 boundary; buying credits never raises your permission.
How do I pay?
Open Billing and choose a credit pack. Stripe hosts card checkout; confirmed payments add credits to your signed-in account automatically. Automatic saved-card reload requires separate consent and must be shown as available in Billing before you can enable it. A spending approval itself does not charge your card.
What happens if an AI request fails?
Confirmed failures are free. An unresolved request may retain its reservation for up to 24 hours, then release it without automatically retrying the task.
Can a colleague review my work?
Export the workspace and share it through a channel you choose. A colleague can import the file. Shared live editing is not part of this release.
What should I measure in a pilot?
Choose observations that match the design: the action taken, explanation given, changed conditions, and remaining uncertainty. Plan separate evidence for retention or transfer.
