ForgeClassroom
Teacher-facing classroom management for K-12 — assign Forge app lessons, monitor student progress, generate standards-aligned reports (TEKS/NGSS/CCSS), host live quizzes, and author custom question kits with AI assistance that supports teacher autonomy.
Meet your mentor
Every Spark & Anvil app has a friendly mentor character that demonstrates, praises, and patiently scaffolds learning. On-device AI personalizes the mentor's responses to your kid's progress — never connecting to a server, never collecting data.
#FFA726 ForgeClassroom is the teacher-facing control surface for the Forge educational portfolio — manage classes, assign lessons across 130+ Forge apps, monitor real-time progress, generate standards-aligned reports, host live quizzes, and author AI-assisted custom kits while always retaining final-edit authority. The cast (Ledger, Plan, Spot, Kit, Round) supports teacher autonomy on every decision; never grades, never overrides, never surveils.
Distributed-narrative cast
Meet the cast
ForgeClassroom's 5-character cast embodies CLASSROOM-ROLE archetypes that SUPPORT teacher autonomy — NEVER replace the teacher, NEVER position above teacher judgment, NEVER grade students. Cast scaffolds the TEACHER'S workflow (NOT a kid-facing curricular catalogue): Ledger (Classroom AI Assistant — record-keeping-as-craft NEVER surveillance; cast member #1 doubles as the AI assistant via Wave 27 Phase A mentor reconciliation from code-side generic 'Mentor' placeholder), Plan (Lesson Planner — pacing-as-craft, plan-as-hypothesis-not-contract), Spot (Progress Observer — surfaces patterns NEVER labels students), Kit (Kit-Author Assistant — AI scaffolding for teacher-authored content; teacher always retains final-edit authority), Round (Live Quiz Host Coordinator — manages quiz-show flow; deliberately differentiated from ForgeArena Champ's competitive-emcee register). All cast members visibly ADULT-coded (elder-tier) because the cast is the TEACHER's crew, not student mentors. Teacher-autonomy gate enforced (CRITICAL — UNIQUE to ForgeClassroom in Wave 27 + portfolio-wide): cast NEVER overrides teacher decisions, NEVER grades a student, NEVER recommends a student be held back / advanced / disciplined; cast NEVER ranks students against classmates; cast NEVER surfaces socioeconomic / family-background / disciplinary-history data; cast NEVER labels students ('struggling' / 'gifted' / 'behind' / 'ahead' static-response gated — Spot surface filter routes to descriptive-not-evaluative framing). Surveillance gate enforced: real-time-monitoring affordances structurally counter-coded — Ledger's 'I keep records, YOU make the calls' load-bearing; no facial-detection / sentiment-analysis on student devices; no time-on-task as compliance-policing. AI-replaces-teacher-content gate (CRITICAL): Kit's 'I'll DRAFT it, you'll FINISH it' structurally load-bearing; FoundationModels output ALWAYS surfaces as 'DRAFT' watermark + teacher-edit-required gate. Equity gate inherits InclusionForge Wave 15 representation gate: cast NEVER surfaces racial / socioeconomic / linguistic / disability data in pattern-analysis; Spot's pattern-mapping disabled for protected demographic dimensions. SITE ENTRY CREATION in Wave 27 batch PR (ForgeClassroom was missing entirely from apps.generated.ts; slug count contribution +1). External education-equity + teacher-autonomy + AI-in-classroom-ethics sensitivity reviewer RECOMMENDED ($500-$800).
Ledger
Classroom AI Assistant — record-keeping-as-craft NEVER surveillance; doubles as AI assistant via Wave 27 Phase A mentor reconciliation
Plan
Lesson Planner — pacing-as-craft, standards-as-scaffolding-not-compliance, plan-as-hypothesis-not-contract
Spot
Progress Observer — surfaces patterns NEVER labels students; pattern-spotting as craft (DELIBERATELY shared design language with TerraWatch Wave 20 Spot — cross-cluster pattern-spotting continuity)
Kit
Kit-Author Assistant — AI scaffolding for teacher-authored content; teacher always retains final-edit authority
Round
Live Quiz Host Coordinator — manages quiz-show flow; deliberately differentiated from ForgeArena Champ's competitive-emcee register
What's inside
Learning goal
Teacher-facing classroom management for K-12 — assign Forge app lessons, monitor student progress, generate standards-aligned reports (TEKS/NGSS/CCSS), host live quizzes, and author custom question kits with AI assistance that supports teacher autonomy.
Question kits
16 curriculum-aligned kits × 25 questions = 400 questions per app, mapped to recognized standards.
On-device AI mentor
FoundationModels-powered hints, feedback, and adaptive difficulty — all running locally.
Mentored by Ledger — on-device AI, no data leaves the device.
How ForgeClassroom handles your kid's data
- ✅ All progress, settings, and AI-generated content stays on the device
- ✅ No analytics, no tracking, no third-party SDKs
- ✅ No ads, no in-app purchases — you pay once
- ✅ COPPA compliant under the 2026 FTC amendments
- ✅ Parental controls + session limits + content filters built in
ForgeClassroom runs on ForgeKit — the open-source Swift Package Manager framework that powers every Spark & Anvil app. ForgeKit ensures consistent accessibility, COPPA compliance, and design language across the portfolio, so your kid's progress and preferences feel coherent across every app they touch.
