Level 1 · Warm-up
1 Which opening makes AI a Socratic partner?
Show worked solution
The ask-me version — the other three leave the AI doing the thinking.
2 Which master prompt suits "I know two concepts separately but not how they link"?
Show worked solution
The Connection Builder — it questions you until you discover the relationship yourself.
Level 2 · Core
3 The AI praises an answer you gave that was actually wrong. Which instruction prevents this?
Show worked solution
Instruct it to question you toward the error instead of accepting or simply correcting it.
4 The questions are far too hard and you cannot begin. Best move?
Show worked solution
Ask it to back up and build gradually — being outside the productive-struggle zone helps nobody.
Level 3 · Challenge
5 A student answers every Socratic question instantly and the session feels smooth and easy. What is the likely problem?
Show worked solution
Probably performing rather than thinking. Genuine retrieval feels effortful; smooth and instant is a warning sign.
6 Why is a Socratic session with AI better preparation for an exam than reading an AI explanation?
Show worked solution
An exam demands retrieval and application without support — exactly what Socratic questioning rehearses and reading does not.
