Success criterion
The system can show flawed processes despite correct answers, or identify breakpoints leading to wrong answers.
Focus
- Outcome-based grading vs process-based grading.
- Math, logic, code reasoning, and planning tasks.
- Self-correction.
- Uncertainty signals.
- Final-answer vs reasoning-path comparison.
Expected outputs
