    "Identify the real task the learner wants to perform better so the course owner can check its relevance to the planned material. A desired improvement does not establish prior skill.",
    "Unfamiliar topics indicate where introductory explanations may be needed before the course's main tasks. Offer suitable preparation while keeping perceived familiarity separate from a demonstrated assessment of prior knowledge.",
    "Turn the requested improvement into a testable next step. One illustrative action is: add exercises tied to the stated tasks."
