I think it's a cool idea and I personally find using LLMs as a teaching tool to still be the most rewarding way of interacting with them, if done right.

Your obvious first port of call IMO is correctness of material, where there's room for improvement [1]. I deliberately picked Gleam because it's still a less known language.

For what it's worth, prompting Opus 4.6 in chat got me this result [2]. Sonnet 4.6 via the Workbench also got it right.

Agree with other comments about UX and design, and maybe also some of those around improving teaching style or gamification aspects, but the above is more important.

Good luck with this, hope you crack it! :)

Yes, at the moment it's an issue of cost. I can't use the best models because it is not affordable. Hopefully as performance improves over the years this will become less of an issue. Maybe I can build in a websearch to verify info though...

I hear you. Yes, I think "seeding" an LLM with docs or other learning material is one of the fundamentals of effectively and efficiently using it for learning, maybe you can build more in that direction?
