Kallipo
Teaching method

Questions first. Hints next. A worked explanation when needed.

Kallipo asks a student to work through a question, then changes its support when the submitted answer is wrong. The current supported Year 8 Mathematics practice flow uses a clear three-stage response.

Support changes

The three-stage practice flow

First: look again

A self-check prompt asks the student to inspect the work and try again.

Second: a more specific hint

Kallipo first tries a matching authored misconception hint. It can fall back to another error pattern or a general hint.

Third: show and explain

Kallipo shows and explains a worked solution, then checks the idea again with another question.

Active practice

The student still does the work

The lesson presents the question in the working area. Depending on the question, the student writes, chooses or explicitly submits an answer. Voice is used for guidance and explanation.

Lessons can combine voice, written working, on-screen choices and explicit answer submission.

Authored guidance

What a targeted hint means

Supported practice questions can include authored hints for known misconception patterns. When a submitted answer matches one of those patterns, Kallipo can use the matching guidance.

When there is no matching authored pattern, Kallipo provides broader guidance before moving to the worked explanation stage.

Check the idea again

A backup question can revisit the same skill

A correct answer reached with help, or a show-and-explain path, can keep the same skill slot active. A backup question can then check the idea again.

After the attempt limit, the lesson can move forward and record the skill for more practice.

Lesson structure

Practice sits inside a wider lesson

The current Mathematics phase model can include refresher questions, an introduction, practice, a practice summary, quiz introduction, quiz, finish and completion.

Some lessons can add bonus practice after first-attempt errors. Structured quiz answers are submitted on screen, while voice supports conversation and explanation.

Plain answers

Questions about How Kallipo teaches

Does Kallipo ever show the answer?

Yes. In the supported practice flow, Kallipo first asks for a self-check and then provides a targeted hint. After repeated incorrect attempts, it can show and explain the worked solution.

What happens after the first, second and third incorrect attempts?

The first prompts a self-check, the second can provide a targeted or broader hint, and the third can trigger a worked explanation.

How does Kallipo choose a hint?

Kallipo first tries to match an authored misconception hint. When no match is available, it uses broader guidance.

Can Kallipo credit working as well as a final answer?

Supported structured questions can credit method steps as well as the final answer.

What happens if the student is still stuck?

Kallipo can show and explain a worked solution, then use another question to check the idea again.

Can Kallipo make mistakes?

Yes. AI responses can be wrong. Unexpected answers should be checked with a teacher or parent.

Is the quiz completed by voice?

Structured quiz answers are submitted through the on-screen lesson interface. Voice is used for tutoring conversation and explanation.
