What this pilot is and isn't
Know what this pilot will and won't do before you decide anything.
Program Library
The readings and notes that sit alongside the steps, kept in the curriculum's own words. Nothing here needs filling in — it is material to come back to.
Readings only. Your answers stay with the step you wrote them in.
Participant readings
Know what this pilot will and won't do before you decide anything.
Identify participation rights, the actual privacy limits, correction routes, and separate consent choices.
Practise giving, receiving, declining and revising feedback without pressure.
Name the conditions that make participation workable, without disclosing anything you don't want to.
Decide freely whether and how to take part.
Put the life you are actually living on one page, before you plan anything.
Notice what draws your attention without forcing an answer. 'I don't know yet' is a valid place to start.
Learn two patterns of relating to an activity as noticing tools, not types of people.
Choose an existing interest, a bounded exposure, or a no-clue-yet route, and design one small try you can actually learn from.
Extra reference material that sits with this step.
Separate your report, an observer's observation, your interpretation, the conditions, and the cost.
Review what happened and choose your Next Decision.
Describe one part of a task's setup and turn it into a question you could test.
Plan or attempt one reversible change, and notice both the result and the effort it takes.
Separate the result, the cost and the explanation, then choose what is worth carrying forward.
Keep what happened separate from what you make it mean.
Translate a value you choose into one small, observable action with workable limits.
Use new observations to revise a statement and choose a specific next action.
Tell the five parts apart and find one point where a choice or pause could be available.
Protect a working condition, or try one small reversible response and look at what happened next.
Separate impression from evidence, choose a decision rule and a protected boundary, and close Pilot 1 with what you choose to keep.
Research behind the program
The program team's own research documents, listed here so you can see what the curriculum is built on. Each one shows where it came from and the status it states for itself. They are design documents, not lessons — the full text is there if you want it, and it is optional reading.
