Wayfinder

A complete, real GED instructional system — verified computation, a prerequisite-mapped curriculum across all four subjects, and a real misconception database. Built to be read and used directly by an AI assistant, on request, not just browsed by a person.

PurposeA domain-independent GED instructional framework, structured so a person's own AI assistant can read it and generate real, verified lessons — not a database to browse manually.

StatusActive Development — real, complete pedagogical content and a verified computation engine; not yet run with real students

How to actually use this

Open your own AI assistant — Claude, or whatever you use — and ask it directly to read this page and the pages it links to, then generate something real: a GED algebra lesson for a student weak on fractions, a diagnostic assignment for RLA, a progress report template. Plain instructions, nothing hidden: the framework and the verified computation engine are both real and both readable. Your AI does the work; this page is the source of truth it works from.

Example prompt: "Read dynamicsystemsarchitecture.org/wayfinder and use the Algebra tier map and the misconception database to build me a diagnostic assignment for a student who keeps making sign errors in linear equations."

Shared infrastructure — used by every module below

built · executed Wayfinder Education Engine The only executable code in the platform — verified Math, Science, Finance, Reading, and Data computation. One real bug found and fixed before publishing. built Protocol Bank Circuit Breaker, Anti-Freeze, channel diagnostics, error taxonomy — shared across every module.

Wayfinder GED — all four subjects

built Module Architecture Start here — how the module is structured, how assignments generate, how progress tracks. built Learning Framework All four subjects, tier breakdowns, prerequisites, diagnostic probes. built Misconception Database Real error patterns across all four subjects, not generic wrong-answer categories. built Math Sandbox Protocols How math answers get verified through the real engine before being shown to a student. built Prompt Templates Lesson Generation, Socratic Questioning, Assignment Analysis — ready to use directly. built Progress Tracking Assignment Tracker, Concept Mastery Tracker, Monthly Guardian Report. built · interactive Assignment Tracker — Live App Real, working algebra assignment generator — calibrated difficulty, prerequisite gating, deterministic grading.

What isn't here

A separate Wayfinder Reading module (pre-literate reading instruction, ages 4-8) exists but isn't published here — instructional content aimed at young children is held to a higher publishing bar than the rest of this site, and that module hasn't cleared it yet.
