If you can explain it, you know it.
AI Peers is a learning management system built around one standard: not “did you finish”, but “can you do this without help”. Read, ask, teach the material back — your Learning Twin watches the evidence and plans what to study next.
AI student: Before I take your word for it — “explain it” to whom, exactly? Pick the hardest idea in your next lesson and teach it to me. I’ll keep asking until the explanation holds.
AI student: This is the page I keep on you. Three kinds of evidence, and I don’t invent the third kind.
Learning Twin
Introduction to Cell Biology — private to you. Inspect everything it stores.
Osmosis vs. diffusion4 signalsWithout help
You separated the two on last week’s quiz without hints, then held it in a teach-back three days later.
Electron transport chain7 signalsWith hints
Every correct answer so far came while the tutor was hinting. Try one cold before the next quiz — the twin counts assisted and unassisted differently.
Linked gene inheritanceNo signals yetNot checked yet
No quiz or teach-back has touched this since the course started, and the twin will not pretend otherwise.
This week: 25 min — reread the linked-genes lesson, then teach it back until the student stops asking why.
You can see every stored signal — and dispute any of it.
One week, in evidence.
Day 1
Read the lesson.
The reading is an Active PDF: questions sit beside the passages they test, so the text keeps interrupting you on purpose.
Five attempts on the passage questions — two with the hint open. That is a signal, not a score.
Day 2
Get stuck.
The electron transport chain will not fit together. The tutor will not hand over the answer — hints first, always citing the lesson it drew from.
Four questions about oxygen’s role. I noted the pattern; I did not tell.
Day 3
Teach it back.
Explain the lesson to an AI student. It restates, misunderstands on purpose, and keeps asking why — until the explanation actually holds.
Try Teaching Me“Oxygen is the energy” — you said it twice. That is the misconception I will watch for.
Day 4
Show what you know.
Quizzes grade on the server — the answers never reach your browser — and every result lands in the twin as evidence.
Cold question on the electron transport chain: correct, no hints. The first unassisted point.
Day 5
The twin keeps the books.
Assisted and unassisted success stay separate, so the number that moves is the one you earned.
Electron transport chain: now “without help”. You changed the badge, not me.
Day 6
Keep the notebook.
Highlights from this week’s reading land in one notebook beside your own notes — and when you can’t find where you wrote something, ask your notes; they can even draft flashcards from them.
You wrote the summary before the quiz, not after. The cold question agreed with you.
Day 7
Get next week’s plan.
The twin schedules the coming week around what the evidence shows — the gap that is real, not the one that is loudest.
Linked genes: still no signals. It goes in the plan before it goes on a quiz.
