Proposed activity; no child photographs without documented permission.
Proposed educational application, not a report of a completed children’s programme: a short activity helps learners distinguish a question, an answer and evidence. A teacher or adult facilitates without a child’s account, name or photograph being submitted to a tool.
Begin offline: provide “What I know,” “What I expect” and “What I need to check” cards. Use a school water-saving question, without risky experiments or water of unknown safety.
Fictional claim: “All plants need the same amount of water.” Ask whether “all” is justified and what information is missing. An adult helps locate age-appropriate evidence rather than replacing one unsupported claim with another.
Twenty-minute sequence: frame a question for five minutes; compare two fictional answers for five; seek evidence with an adult for five; write a better answer for five. The teacher can create both answers without an external service.
If an adult uses an AI tool, try: “Draft two short answers for class discussion, one with a clear overgeneralization. Add a teacher note explaining the error and do not present it as a fact.” Review before classroom use.
Evaluation: one point each for a useful question, noticing the overgeneralization, requesting evidence and improving the answer. This is neither an intelligence test nor a diagnosis. The website does not collect children’s names or marks, or claim consent for unavailable photographs.
