Cyber Sim V10

Cyber Sim becomes a high-stakes decision environment where learners make predictions, act, revise, transfer, and produce evidence.

Domain world

A high-stakes operations room with signals, alerts, triage, time pressure, and consequence chains.

A high-stakes operations room with signals, alerts, triage, time pressure, and consequence chains. This V10 profile is intentionally separate from the current Cyber Sim runtime until the new shell is built and validated.

First action

Inspect the first alert, classify signal versus noise, then choose containment.

V10 forbids blank-canvas confusion: the first action must be visible, meaningful, and produce a consequence.

Misconception traps
  • Every alert is not an incident
  • Containment can destroy evidence
  • High severity is not the same as high confidence
Adaptive intelligence
  • Increase signal noise
  • Add time pressure only after basic triage is stable
  • Increase transfer distance after strong explanation
  • Add scaffold when revision quality drops
  • Route repeated misconception to a repair micro-mission

Readiness gates
One clear goal

The learner sees one mission goal before any controls compete for attention.

Visible first action

The first action is obvious, clickable/touchable, and visibly changes state.

Three meaningful decisions

The mission requires at least three choices where different reasoning produces different outcomes.

Misconception trap

The sim includes a likely misconception and captures evidence when the learner falls into or avoids it.

Revision opportunity

The learner can revise after observing consequences instead of being graded only on first output.

Transfer prompt

The learner applies the same reasoning to a new context before completion.

Teacher-readable evidence

TeacherOS can summarize prediction, action, observation, explanation, revision, and transfer.

Teacher value contract

The sim must resist cheating, reduce burnout, reduce grading time, maximize screen-time value, and support misconception-cluster feedback.

Teacher source control

Teacher-provided sources, datasets, documents, and research constraints must be preserved in the mission contract.

TeachProof recommendation

TeacherOS/TeachProof must recommend how the classroom simulation should have been run based on observed student events.

Grade-appropriate shell

The selected shell changes language density, controls, read-aloud, and scaffolding by grade band.

Accessibility baseline

The experience is Chromebook-safe, keyboard reachable, reduced-motion aware, and readable.

Visual distinctiveness

The sim is not a reskin: objects, controls, mission art, and success state are domain-specific.

Playable V10 missions

Pick one mission. Follow the guide. Submit evidence.

These are the original STEM missions upgraded into the V10 workflow: start, goal, controls, evidence, submit.
