BrainLoader — Teacher & admin guides
These guides describe how to use the BrainLoader / Horizon teacher workspace, student lesson experience, curriculum tooling, and related admin surfaces. They reflect the application as implemented in this repository.
Quick start
- Open the Teacher workspace from the top navigation (sticky bar appears on teacher routes).
- Use Teacher hub (
/teacher) for class oversight, roster, Quest History (ledger), roadmap, and clinics. - Use Curriculum (CIE) (
/cie) to ingest and sequence curriculum and export BrainLoader payloads. - Open Mastery cockpit (
/dashboard/teacher/mastery) for class pulse, evidence review, and interventions.
Guide index
Use the Contents list in the sidebar on the Help & guides page (/teacher/guides) to open each section.

In-app help
- Help & guides in the teacher workspace bar links to
/teacher/guides(readable markdown versions of these files). - Use the Support chat bubble (bottom-right on teacher and admin routes) for step-by-step questions; it uses the same product facts as the knowledge base file
SUPPORT-KNOWLEDGE-BASE.md(for staff only — not the student tutor).
