Sorting, matching, quizzes, and the module gate stay behind a free account so scored answers are not public. The teaching notes below are the same cited curriculum.

What this lesson covers

  1. 01

    One row per action

    From Module 1 you have observable actions. Add columns: evidence you will accept, activity format (branch, drag, simulation), LTEM tier you are claiming, and who signs off (SME, QA, compliance). This table is what stakeholders review — not a slide count.
