Research direction
Start with workshop/05-agentic-workflows-intro.md, especially Activity 2 near line 62, and review its three key terms and existing activities. Add worked examples with answer explanations, a hint for each item, and a short concept check while retaining all concepts. Confirm each activity has feedback or answer guidance, then check that the overall score remains at least 5.43 and the learning KPI index at least 2.2.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
Problem
workshop/05-agentic-workflows-intro.md has 18.8% conditional dropout (36,945 at-risk runs; agentic concept gap 4,766, deployment capability gap 2,167). It has the lowest active_learning (2.4) of the core path and gives little remediation when learners misclassify workflows in Activity 2 (line 62).
Proposed change
Add worked examples with answer explanations to Activity 2, a "if you got this wrong" hint for each item, and a short concept-check checkpoint tied to the three key terms. Do not remove any concepts.
Failure mode
Learning barrier.
Quantitative guardrail
overall_score 5.43; weakest: active_learning 2.4 and checkpoint_quality 0.0. Current learning KPI inputs: active_learning 2.4, checkpoint_quality 0.0, scaffolding 5.0 (index 2.2). Added worked practice and feedback should raise active_learning and scaffolding.
Acceptance criteria
- Step's overall_score stays flat or improves (≥ 5.43)
- Learning KPI index stays flat or improves (≥ 2.2)
- Hands-on practice, checkpoints and scaffolding are preserved or strengthened
- Each activity has feedback or answer guidance
