Learning decisions

Understand automated decision-making (ADM), explore an example and request a human review.

Scoring, mastery and progression are determined by server-side rules. AI can explain an idea or offer a hint, but it cannot award mastery, grant progression or override a decision.

How decisions are made

The Five-Layer Architecture separates authoritative learning rules from AI assistance. This page supports transparency and review under the Australian Privacy Act.

Layer 1: Capability engine

Mathematical mastery calculation and prerequisite relationships.

Layer 2: Pedagogy configuration

Teaching strategies, scaffolding and progression rules.

Layer 3: Content and scoring

Versioned lessons and deterministic scoring rules.

Layer 4: Presentation

Reading level, vocabulary and visual preferences.

Layer 5: AI assistance

Non-authoritative hints, explanations and feedback. AI does not score answers or grant access to learning content.

These illustrative calculations do not represent a learner result. Changing the inputs does not update any learning record or grant access to content.

1 to 10. Use arrow keys, select a position on the track, or use the decrease and increase buttons.

0 to 4. Use arrow keys, select a position on the track, or use the decrease and increase buttons.

1 to 10. Use arrow keys, select a position on the track, or use the decrease and increase buttons.

Example formula:
Mastery = min(1.0, (Correct / Attempts) × (0.8 + 0.04 × DifficultyBand))

Example result

75% — Practising
Raw accuracy
75.0%
Difficulty scaling
1.00×

In this example, 3 of 4 answers are correct at difficulty band 5. The formula produces the result shown above.
