Create differentiated lesson files from source pages
Source-backed example. Practical decision guidance is proposed and untested; this is not a full implementation guide.
The problem
Preparing lesson variants requires preserving shared learning objectives while adapting materials consistently across a unit's slides and documents.
Agent job
Read source-page images and objectives, produce matched slide and document variants and reuse project rules across the unit.
Expected output
Differentiated lesson files aligned with supplied learning objectives.

Editorial framing and outcome limits
Describes the task’s purpose and intended output; measured benefit, safe unsupervised operation and successful delivery are not established by this framing.
Editorial synthesis based on the linked source. This framing does not add evidence of successful delivery or results.
Case-specific decision guidance · untested

Why use this
A teacher may need materials with different reading demands while teaching the same idea. Adapting a slide and its companion handout separately can introduce contradictory examples or quietly remove the objective from the easier version.
This job could produce related drafts with a visible link back to the shared objective. Comparing variants side by side makes it easier for the teacher to check that language support changes without changing what students are being asked to learn.
Why an agent / simpler alternative
- Useful judgment
Simplify wording and scaffolding while retaining essential concepts, then compare slide and document consistency.
- Simpler alternative
Use a standard accessibility or reading-level template when only typography or a few terms need adjustment.
- Unsuitable when
Adaptations require individual child records or learning needs beyond the teacher's supplied guidance.
Proposed inputs
- Name
Licensed source page
- Owner
Educator
- Minimum scope
Legible page images with page identifiers
- Quality check
Check reading order, diagrams and text recognition
- Name
Objective and group brief
- Owner
Educator
- Minimum scope
Shared objective and anonymous language/support profiles
- Quality check
Identify essential terminology and non-negotiable content
Access and setup — proposed or unknown
- Proposed minimum
Supplied page copies and an isolated output folder; no student-account access is needed.
- Compatibility unknowns
Exact model, file-generation capability, current runtime and school-system compatibility are unknown.
- External actions requiring approval
Sharing lesson files, uploading licensed material or disclosing pupil information needs appropriate authorization.
Expected deliverable and review checks
- Proposed artifact
Matched slide/handout variants with a short objective-to-section comparison for teacher review.
- Critical checks
Every variant addresses the same objective; preserve units, diagrams and factual meaning; compare paired files.
- Missing output evidence
No inspected lesson variants or demonstrated learning outcomes are supplied in this overlay.
Failure signals and proposed responses
- Signal
Simplification removes the key distinction
- Why it matters
An easier text may teach a different concept
- Proposed response
Restore the distinction using a clearer example and teacher review.
- Signal
Slide and handout give different answers
- Why it matters
Students receive inconsistent instruction
- Proposed response
Reconcile against the source and regenerate the affected pair.
Effort and cost — unknown
- Setup work
Define adaptation rules and authorized source boundaries.
- Ongoing review
Review content, accessible layout and classroom suitability.
- Unknowns
Curriculum alignment effort, export fidelity and service costs are unknown.
First check — proposed, unexecuted
- Status
proposed_unexecuted
- Synthetic fixture
Invent a short evaporation passage, one objective and two anonymous reading-support profiles; specify matching slides and handouts.
- Acceptance checks
Retain the liquid-to-gas concept in both; flag unsupported additions; match examples across formats.
- Stop conditions
Stop if source text is unreadable or adaptation needs identifiable student data.
Limits
Reading-level labels are editorial targets, not validated assessments of a student's needs.
Editorial candidate. This is source-backed reporting or a documented workflow. BotCurrent has not independently tested this task. A proposed Canadian adaptation is not evidence of a Canadian deployment or compliance certification.
