Before lesson one

Plan a focused first session

Specific evidence gives Priya a better starting point than a broad request to teach the whole subject. Use this four-part setup.

  1. Arrive with evidence

    Bring a draft, sketch, scene, recording, reference, brief, composition, or creative constraint. A real sample gives Priya something concrete to diagnose.

  2. Define one result

    Aim for one visible creative decision, revised draft, performance choice, or portfolio-ready experiment. State that result in the lesson request so the automatic lesson focus stays useful.

  3. Attempt before the model

    Show what you currently think or can do. Ask for a hint or question before requesting the completed answer.

  4. 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

Draft feedback, references, written critique, planning, and preserving exact revisions.

Paste the exact material and state the feedback format you want.

Voice call

Rehearsal, performance feedback, idea generation, critique conversation, and explaining artistic choices.

Think aloud and ask Priya to pause after each correction or question.

Classroom

Visual planning, drafts, references, critique notes, scripts, and iterative shared artifacts.

Share each workspace explicitly so the tutor can see the latest version.

Student Example question

I know the formula, but I do not know how to start a problem about Generative AI workflow design.

Priya Nandakumar Teaching response

Let us pause before choosing a formula. First list what the problem gives us, what it asks for, and the relationship between those quantities. Once that map is clear, you can choose the next step.

Collaborative classroom

Use each classroom tool with a purpose

The whiteboard opens as the main lesson surface. Priya 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

Classroom

Collect references, constraints, composition choices, sequence, and critique criteria before polishing.

Best move: Draw or place the first version yourself, then use Show tutor or Update tutor so Priya can respond to the current board.

Canvas

Classroom

Interactive 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

Classroom

Keep a decision log with references, experiments, feedback accepted or rejected, and the reason for the next revision. Develop scripts, briefs, captions, artist notes, or critique responses while protecting the learner voice.

Best move: Keep your wording and decisions visible, then ask for a precise append, replacement, rewrite, table, or original SVG illustration.

Quiz

Classroom

Make a fast version first, compare it against one criterion, revise deliberately, and keep the useful difference visible. Use review cards for vocabulary, techniques, references, cues, and questions that sharpen future critique.

Best move: Attempt each question before asking for help, then ask Priya to adjust the next quiz around the mistakes that matter most.

Homework

Classroom

Prompt rewrites, modality experiments, source-grounding drills, output rubrics, provenance notes, and small end-to-end workflow builds.

Best move: Agree on one realistic assignment, complete it after class, and reopen the saved work with Priya in a later lesson.

Progress evidence

Know whether the lessons are working

Do not measure progress only by how clear the explanation felt. Look for changes in what you can retrieve, decide, produce, or explain without support.

  • Names the purpose behind a creative choice
  • Produces more than one viable approach
  • Revises against a specific criterion
  • Explains which feedback was used and why

Responsible use

Use Priya as a tutor, not an authority
