How Example Problems Work

While working in Spicy Mode, students will see an Example Problem button next to the text-to-speech icon.

When selected:

  • a sample solution for a similar problem appears

  • students can review the strategy and structure

  • students return to their own problem to solve independently

The example is intended to guide thinking, not provide the answer to the active problem.

How Example Problems Support Students

Example Problems help students:

  • understand problem-solving steps

  • recognize solution structure and format

  • build confidence before starting

  • practice with guided support

This creates a more supportive experience while still encouraging independent thinking and reasoning.
