Compare across, not just within.
the shape of this subject
World history rewards comparative thinking. Brainback nudges you toward cross-civilizational analysis instead of narrative summary.
Because world history rewards the students who do the reps — and punishes the ones who outsource them.
Add World history as a Learn subject and every problem in these areas routes to the Socratic tutor — attempt-first, hint-laddered, output-guarded.
Attempt → correction → guiding question. No answer. Ever. Verbatim from a beta session.
Compare state formation in the Ottoman and Mughal empires…
What are you comparing across, and along what dimension?
no answer · one guiding question · your next move
the anti-pattern
Answer machines make world history look like a solved problem. It isn't. The exam room reveals whose reasoning was built and whose was rented.
the recall card
Every wrong attempt and low-scored explain-back becomes a card. SM-2 schedules them — the tricky ones come back tomorrow, the solid ones drift out to next week, then next month.
Recall the core concept in your own words. Then apply it to a fresh example under 2 minutes.

Attempt-first. Never the answer. Add it as a Learn subject in 30 seconds.
