01Study
Use linked OER and companion sources before attempting checks.
02Practice
Move through numbered PeerTutor problems without skipping failed gates.
03Mirror
Enter Khan report evidence and let the adaptive plan rank repair units.
04Handoff
Bring exact misses, notes, and one sharp question to a tutor.
The bank is intentionally mixed across facets and difficulty so high scores cannot come from one narrow question style.

Khan progress mirror
Mirror outside mastery into PeerTutor practice
Khan Academy progress has to be entered from the student or tutor report. Khan does not provide a supported public progress API, so this mirror stores unit status locally and uses it to target PeerTutor checks.

Unit sequence
Built for independent progress first, then tutor support where the student gets stuck.
01
Research methods and AP reasoning
Use variables, operational definitions, ethics, sampling, correlation, experiments, and statistics.
Interpret scenarios and data with method limits.
Practice: Critique a psychology study scenario and identify variables, design, bias, and ethical constraints.
Unit work plan
1
Source study
Start with AP Psychology and Psychology 2e. Take notes until you can explain: Use variables, operational definitions, ethics, sampling, correlation, experiments, and statistics.
2
Foundation gate
Do the first sequenced checks until the definitions, vocabulary, and setup are correct without hints.
3
Transfer gate
Produce the assignment artifact, then pass the application and analysis checks tied to: Critique a psychology study scenario and identify variables, design, bias, and ethical constraints.
4
Repair loop
Any miss becomes an error-log entry, a clean redo, and one nearby transfer problem before advancing.
5
Tutor handoff
Bring your attempted work, the exact missed check, and one question about: Interpret scenarios and data with method limits.
Sequenced original practice checks
Move in order: foundation, transfer, analysis, timed readiness, then metacognitive repair.
Connect biology to behavior without single-cause thinking.
Practice: Map a behavior to neural and biological systems and name one uncertainty in the explanation.
