Task goals
- Foundation: Combine two related algebraic procedures (e.g. expand then solve) in a guided multi-step problem with clear prompts for each step.
- Proficient: Combine three or more procedures (e.g. factorise, simplify, and solve) in a multi-step problem with reduced scaffolding.
- Excellence: Solve a non-routine, multi-step problem that requires selecting and linking several algebraic procedures independently, then fully justify the reasoning and reject any invalid solutions.
