How it works
Learning is a path, not a question.
ALMA follows the whole path — from what you tried to the next topic — and changes how Maya helps as it unfolds.
Four steps, repeated
Understand
Maya starts from what you tried, and asks before she tells.
Adapt
The help changes with how it is going — see below.
Practice
A similar problem, solved on your own.
Grow
Progress is tracked by topic, over time.
How the help changes
These are fixed rules in ALMA, not guesses about you:
Stuck again
Smaller steps.
Frustrated
More support.
On a roll
More challenge.
What Maya can and cannot do
Maya can
- Ask what you tried before explaining
- Turn a mistake into the next step
- Break a step into smaller ones when you’re stuck again
- Give a similar problem to practise
Maya cannot
- Be a counselor — she is a math teacher
- Promise she is never wrong — she is an AI and can make mistakes
