For anyone wondering how a third-grader can complete six years' worth of math in a single year.
This knowledge graph spans 3,000 math topics, from 4th grade to the university level, providing the perfect basis for mastery learning.
Students can go as fast or far as they want! There are no restrictions whatsoever. The only requirement is that they must demonstrate mastery of each topic before moving on to the next.
Kids are capable of incredible things when given that kind of freedom and support.

Promotional content for Math Academy's mastery-learning knowledge-graph curriculum, showing an accelerated third-grader completing Calc BC. Adjacent to Nathan's "knowing_what_you_are_course" / Digital Academy curriculum interests, though about human pedagogy rather than AI.
