Learner prompts

Wanted outcome: first reasoning preserved, then a review against a later source. Prepare: educator selects only E-FIRST and its own blank. E-LATER stays separate until first capture; no source values are displayed in the ordinary opening. 30 = 3 orient + 3 exact briefing + 10 first + 2 capture + 8 later + 4 close.

0–3: remind learners that the new record is fiction. 3–6: read exact task directions and offer access, without content hints. 6–16: Route 5A first. 16–18: capture first response. 18–26: issue only E-LATER and its own blank; learner reviews prediction, compares the new values and states a limit. 26–30: collect later response and choose targeted next teaching. Keep, revise or decline certainty can all be justified; no retrospective coaching of first evidence.
