Keep the thinking with the student.

The TRACE Teacher Pack gives educators a usable way to plan AI-supported learning without quietly outsourcing the learning itself.

TRACE

Target. Retrieve. Ask with boundaries. Check. Edit and explain.

A small Pack you can actually use.

One-page TRACE framework

A memorable five-step check for protecting student thinking.

Bounded AI job planner

Name the learning target, AI role, allowed context, checks, and stop condition.

Student reflection checklist

Help students explain what they knew, checked, changed, and still question.

Safe classroom activity

A 15-minute Attempt → Inspect → Revise routine plus links to two working tools.

Honest label: TRACE is Chad’s practical working framework, not a validated intervention. Its design draws on approved research about retrieval, feedback, self-explanation, and self-assessment without promising guaranteed learning outcomes.
