CONTENT STUDIO PREVIEW

1. Official curriculum anchor

AF.2 · Algebra and functions · Algebraic expressions

investigate situations in which letters stand for quantities that are variable so that they can: generate and interpret expressions in which letters stand for numbers; find the value of expressions given the value of variables; and use the concept of equality to generate and interpret equations

Ordinary and Higher; official source identifies Higher-level-only extensions where applicable · Junior Cycle Mathematics current specification

2. Original iLEARN experience

  1. Learning intention: work directly toward AF.2.
  2. Entry: short original explanation plus key vocabulary.
  3. Active task: use one of the recommended formats below.
  4. Check: learner explains, applies or demonstrates the outcome.
  5. Improve: feedback then retry/redraft.
  6. Evidence: save the improved response against MATH-JC-AF-02.

3. Recommended content formats

  • Investigation / experiment — question · hypothesis · method · variables/safety · evidence table · reflection
  • Interactive model — interactive brief · prediction · manipulation · observation · explain-back
  • Source enquiry — curated lawful sources · source questions · evidence grid · claim-evidence-reasoning response
  • Visual summary / poster — original diagram plan · labels · short captions · text equivalent

Originality rule: new wording, examples, questions, datasets, diagrams and sequences. Publisher material is not copied or stored.

4. Required learner variants

Easy English · Standard English · Exam/subject language

Easy / Standard / Exam English · Read aloud · Reduced motion · Chunked instructions · Voice or typed response · Vocabulary support · Non-visual / non-drag alternative when needed

5. Teacher control

The authenticated Content Studio backend now supports preview → save draft → teacher edit → approve. Nothing becomes learner-visible by default.
