Applied Domain
Purpose
Provides domain expertise for the 10 Applied & Practical tier packs. These are practical skills that build on core academic foundations: computer science, data science, world languages, psychology, environmental science, nutrition, economics, creative writing, logic, and digital literacy. Each subject emphasizes hands-on application and real-world relevance.
Capabilities
- Subject-specific learning outcome hierarchies for 10 applied subjects
- Cross-subject prerequisite mapping to core tier (e.g., CODE-101 depends on MATH-101, PROB-101)
- Grade-level complexity scaling with emphasis on middle school through college
- Applied activity types (coding projects, data analysis labs, language immersion exercises, field studies)
- Assessment methods emphasizing portfolio and project-based evaluation
- Resource curation with emphasis on interactive tools and practice environments

- Core academic packs as prerequisites (MATH-101, READ-101, PROB-101, COMM-101)
Token Budget Rationale
1.0% budget covers the domain knowledge reference for 10 subjects. The skill provides subject-specific guidance (not full content) -- the actual content is generated in context using the authoring templates.
