It is a connected ESL teaching system: - **Persistent student context** — profiles (level, interests, strengths, challenges, goals) carry across every lesson and suggestion - **AI Learning Path** — per-student planning that suggests what to teach next, with transparent rationale - **Long-term pedagogical planning** — daily lessons connect to north-star goals, not isolated one-off outputs - **Full teaching workflow** — generate → deliver live → capture scores and notes → inform next suggestions - **Interactive delivery** — ready-to-teach activities (quizzes, role-plays, worksheets), not text-only output System flow: Student Profile → Personalized Lessons → AI Learning Path → Teaching Workflow → Progress Tracking --- ## AI Learning Path Per-student, goal-driven planning assistant for ESL/EFL teachers. Suggests complete next lessons with "Why this lesson?" rationale grounded in student context — not a generic content feed. Connects daily lessons to long-term pedagogical goals. ### What It Is - Planning layer on top of the lesson generator - North-star goal per student (e.g., "Travel with confidence", "Reach B2 for job interviews") - AI-generated suggestions forming a coherent sequence toward that goal - Transparent rationale connecting challenges, strengths, interests, and history to each suggestion - Adapts as the student progresses — not a fixed curriculum; every suggestion explains why it was recommended - Teacher control: follow suggestions, customize & generate, refresh, or create custom lessons ### Setup Step 1 — Goal and schedule: free-text goal (required), classes per week (1–5+), duration (30, 45, 60, 90, or 120 min), optional CEFR-level strength/challenge tags Step 2 — Teacher assessment: free-text narrative on learning patterns, struggles, motivations; editable from dashboard ### How Suggestions Work **Inputs:** student profile (CEFR level, profession, interests), path config (goal, schedule, strengths, challenges, assessment), lesson history (titles, types, dates, observations, notes) **Generation:** - Exactly 2 suggestions per batch; each includes title, description, and "Why this lesson?" rationale - Each suggestion is a complete lesson idea with 1–3 topic drafts (grammar, reading, or listening) - Each draft: section title, pedagogical focus, suggested activities - Grounded in ESL/EFL pedagogy: CEFR levels, English syllabus grammar, communicative language teaching - Avoids recent repetition; matches CEFR level; connects to profession and interests - Refresh replaces unused suggestions; completed lessons feed future batches Suggested activities: presentation, fillInBlanks, matchInBlanks, unscramble, quiz, vocabularyMatch, storySequencing, conversation **Teacher actions:** view details, view generated lesson, customize & generate (one-click full lesson), delete, refresh batch, create custom lesson **Progress:** completed lessons link to path and spawning suggestion; post-lesson notes feed future suggestions; journey view on Learning Path page **Dashboard:** name, CEFR, goal, strengths/challenges, assessment, up to 2 current suggestions, custom lesson shortcut, past lessons ### Example Student: Maria, B1, software engineer, interests: technology, travel Goal: "Reach B2 for job interviews" Challenges: present perfect vs. past simple, spontaneous speaking Strengths: reading comprehension Suggested: 1. "Professional Past Experiences" (Grammar) — past tenses in interview contexts, role-play. Rationale: tense confusion in reports, need for verbal confidence. 2. "Tech Industry News Reading" (Reading) — B2-scaffolded comprehension on tech topics. Rationale: leverage reading strength to scaffold speaking gaps. 3. "Job Interview Listening Practice" (Listening) — YouTube-based listening with vocabulary matching and conversation prompts. Rationale: native-speed comprehension and interview confidence. Teacher reviews "Why this lesson?" → Customize & Generate → deliver contextualized lesson. --- ## Personalized Lesson Planning Every lesson is built around the individual student. Teachers set up a profile once; context flows into all generated content. ### What Gets Personalized - **CEFR level (A1–C2)**: vocabulary, grammar complexity, reading length, activity difficulty - **Interests**: themes, scenarios, and contexts from student interests (not generic filler) - **Profession**: workplace vocabulary, interview scenarios, professional communication - **Strengths and challenges**: leverage strengths, target identified gaps - **Goals**: topics align with learner objectives (travel, job interviews, academic writing) - **Teacher assessment**: free-text notes shape tone, focus, and approach ### How It Works 1. Create student profile: level, interests, profession, strengths, challenges, teacher assessment 2. Choose lesson type (Grammar, Reading, Listening) and describe what to teach 3. AI generates complete lesson in seconds: explanations, exercises, role-plays, quizzes, conversation activities 4.
