How it works

SLAN Builder turns static content into Nudge

SLAN is the platform and processing pipeline used by professors and content owners. Nudge is the student-facing assistant that delivers guided reasoning paths to an actionable outcome.

Course slides → frameworks → steps → ThinkingPaths → NudgeArtefacts (student outputs) — coming soonFrameworks = reusable modules (rubrics, checklists, templates, decision rules)

Nudge

Guided application, not generic answers

Nudge routes learners to a relevant guided path and walks them through the steps. The goal is to support judgment under constraints (tradeoffs, assumptions, “what matters here?”), not to replace learning with answer dumping.

Ask a question

The learner asks what they’re trying to do (e.g., “How do I structure a case recommendation?”). Nudge identifies a relevant guided path.

Work the path

Nudge steps the learner through prompts, decision checks, and branching logic—aligned to the course approach when deployed in an academic context.

Produce an outcome

The learner finishes with an actionable outcome (plan, recommendation, checklist, next steps). Exportable artefacts (docs) are planned and marked as coming soon.

Mini example: “Case analysis → recommendation”

  1. Define the decision and constraints (time, data, stakeholders).
  2. Identify what must be true (assumptions + risks).
  3. Evaluate tradeoffs explicitly (what you gain/lose by each option).
  4. Synthesize a recommendation with rationale + next actions.

This is a simplified illustration. In product, steps can branch, include completion checks, and be tailored by module/cohort.
