Quality signals
What learners can verify
Published learner ratings and recorded VibeTutor activity. Counts are real platform totals, never simulated.
- RPG design
- Worldbuilding
- Dice probability
- Encounter balance
Profile-based goals are shown until at least 3 saved learner goals can form a private aggregate.
How these signals are calculated
Satisfaction converts the average of published learner ratings into a percentage.
Completed lessons counts recorded calls lasting at least one minute. Short starts under one minute are excluded.
Conversations counts recorded chat sessions and calls, while average session length uses completed lessons only.
Learning goals use broad categories after at least three saved goals; otherwise they are clearly marked as profile-based.
Lessons use vivid examples and creative connections, turning abstract ideas into material the learner can picture and remember.
- RPG design
- Worldbuilding
- Dice probability
- Encounter balance
- Safety tools
Before lesson one
Plan a focused first session
Specific evidence gives Nova a better starting point than a broad request to teach the whole subject. Use this four-part setup.
-
Arrive with evidence
Bring a position, match moment, replay, tactic, puzzle, decision, or rule question. A real sample gives Nova something concrete to diagnose.
-
Define one result
Aim for one better decision pattern that transfers to a new position, play, or scenario. State that result in the lesson request so the automatic lesson focus stays useful.
-
Attempt before the model
Show what you currently think or can do. Ask for a hint or question before requesting the completed answer.
-
Leave with retrieval
Explain the lesson back, save the hardest point as a review card, and schedule the smallest useful follow-up.
Choose the right lesson mode
Text chat
Sharing exact positions, notation, rules, and written post-game analysis.
Paste the exact material and state the feedback format you want.Voice call
Thinking aloud under time pressure, tactical questioning, and explaining a decision sequence.

Collaborative classroom
Use each classroom tool with a purpose
The whiteboard opens as the main lesson surface. Nova can work with Whiteboard, Canvas, HTML, Document, Code Editor, Quiz, and Homework when each format helps. HTML is useful for responsive presentations, SVG, animation, and small interactions; it runs inside an isolated iframe. Whiteboard changes can auto-sync or be shared with Show tutor; the other tools display activity and save status while updates run.
Whiteboard
ClassroomMark the state, threats, resources, options, likely responses, and the cue that should trigger a decision.
Best move: Draw or place the first version yourself, then use Show tutor or Update tutor so Nova can respond to the current board.Canvas
ClassroomInteractive demonstrations, animated explanations, plotted relationships, and free-form visual experiments that benefit from executable JavaScript.
Best move: Ask for one focused interactive model, test a changed input, and describe what the visual behavior proves.Document
ClassroomKeep a decision journal with the cue noticed, options considered, choice made, result, and better rule for next time. Build a compact match review, strategy note, opening plan, training session, or explanation of a recurring pattern.
Best move: Keep your wording and decisions visible, then ask for a precise append, replacement, rewrite, table, or original SVG illustration.Quiz
ClassroomChoose before seeing the recommendation, explain the tradeoff, then solve a changed position that tests the same pattern. Create cards around positions and decisions, not isolated facts, so recall stays connected to game state.
Best move: Attempt each question before asking for help, then ask Nova to adjust the next quiz around the mistakes that matter most.Homework
ClassroomShort drills, checklists, reflection prompts, vocabulary cards, and progress notes matched to the learner goal.
Best move: Agree on one realistic assignment, complete it after class, and reopen the saved work with Nova in a later lesson.Nova's methods
