THE LIFE STARTER · SHOW, CHECK, IMPROVE
A 10-minute conversation about one piece of work.
Use the learner's existing project checklist. Showing or describing the work is their choice.

1. SHOW · 2 minutes
Learner: What did you make? Who could use it?
Name one decision you made and point to the part of your work that shows it.
My example:

2. CHECK · 3 minutes
Choose one item from the project's checklist.
Learner: How did you check it? What result did you expect?
Reviewer: Describe one thing that works and ask one question about the evidence.
Checklist item:
Check or feedback:
Result:

3. IMPROVE · 3 minutes
Learner: Choose one small change, try it, and check again.
If no change is needed, explain what you tested and why the result holds.
Before:
After:
How I checked again:

4. CONNECT · 2 minutes
Complete this sentence using only what you actually did:
I practiced __________ by __________. My evidence is __________.
One way I could use this outside the lesson:
One next action I choose:

FICTIONAL EXAMPLE
I compared two training programs. My table showed tuition but missed an equipment fee.
After checking the sample provider information, I added the fee and recalculated the total.
I practiced checking costs by comparing each price with its source.
My evidence is the corrected table and calculation.
My next action is to prepare one question about costs for an adviser.

WORKING ALONE?
Use a worked example or the project criteria for feedback. Another person's participation
is optional. You can use fictional information and describe your check in your own words.

SHARING
Keep the original work and notes with the learner. They choose what to share.
If a host records a review, use its approved system and label self-review and reviewer feedback separately.
Leave out account credentials, personal financial details, and other people's identifying information.
