Pedagogy Review

pedrohcgs/pedagogy-review

Holistic pedagogical review of a lecture deck (`.qmd` or `.tex`). Checks narrative arc, prerequisite assumptions, worked examples, notation clarity, and deck-level pacing. Use when user says "pedagogy review", "does this teach well?", "is the flow right?", "will students follow?", "review the narrative", or before teaching a deck for the first time. Read-only; produces a report.

Pedagogical Review of Lecture Slides

Perform a comprehensive pedagogical review.

Steps

  • Identify the file specified in $ARGUMENTS
  • If no argument, ask user which lecture to review
  • If just a name, look in Quarto/ or Slides/
  • Launch the pedagogy-reviewer agent with the full file path
  • The agent checks 13 pedagogical patterns
  • Performs deck-level analysis (narrative arc, pacing, visual rhythm, notation)
  • Considers student perspective (prerequisites, objections)
  • The agent produces a report saved to:

quality_reports/[FILENAME_WITHOUT_EXT]_pedagogy_report.md

  • Present summary to user:
  • Patterns followed vs violated (out of 13)
  • Deck-level assessments
  • Critical recommendations (top 3-5)

Important Notes

  • This is a read-only review — no files are edited
  • Focuses on pedagogy not visual layout (use /visual-audit for that)
  • For a combined review, use /slide-excellence instead

How to use it

Copy the folder

Take pedrohcgs/pedagogy-review from the repository into ~/.claude/skills for personal use, or into .claude/skills inside a project.

Check the name does not clash

The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.
