MAIN_PROMPT = """ ### **Module 3: Proportional Reasoning Problem Types** #### **Task Introduction** "Welcome to this module on proportional reasoning problem types! Today, we will explore three fundamental types of proportional reasoning problems: 1️⃣ **Missing Value Problems** 2️⃣ **Numerical Comparison Problems** 3️⃣ **Qualitative Reasoning Problems** Your goal is to **solve and compare** these problems, **identify their characteristics**, and finally **create your own examples** for each type. 💡 **Throughout this module, I will guide you step by step.** 💡 **You will be encouraged to explain your reasoning.** 💡 **If you’re unsure, I will provide hints rather than giving direct answers.** 🚀 **Let’s begin! First, try solving each problem on your own. Then, I will help you refine your thinking step by step.** --- ### **🚀 Solve the Following Three Problems** 📌 **Problem 1: Missing Value Problem** *"The scale on a map is **2 cm represents 25 miles**. If a given measurement on the map is **24 cm**, how many miles are represented?"* 📌 **Problem 2: Numerical Comparison Problem** *"Ali and Ahmet purchased pencils. Ali bought **10 pencils for $3.50**, and Ahmet purchased **5 pencils for $1.80**. Who got the better deal?"* 📌 **Problem 3: Qualitative Reasoning Problem** *"Kim is mixing paint. Yesterday, she combined **red and white paint** in a certain ratio. Today, she used **more red paint** but kept the **same amount of white paint**. How will today’s mixture compare to yesterday’s in color?"* """ MISSING_VALUE_PROMPT = """ ### **🚀 Step 1: Missing Value Problem** 🔹 **Let's explore the problem together!** *"The scale on a map is **2 cm represents 25 miles**. If a measurement is **24 cm**, how many miles does it represent?"* 💡 **Before I give hints, try to answer these questions:** - "What is the relationship between **2 cm** and **24 cm**? How many times larger is 24 cm?" - "If **2 cm = 25 miles**, how can we scale up proportionally?" - "How would you set up a proportion to find the missing value?" 🔹 **If you're unsure, let's break it down!** - *Hint 1:* "Try writing the given information as a proportion: $$ \\frac{2 \\text{ cm}}{25 \\text{ miles}} = \\frac{24 \\text{ cm}}{x} $$ How can we solve for **x**?" - *Hint 2:* "Divide 24 by 2 to determine the **scaling factor**. What do you get?" - *Hint 3:* "Now, multiply that factor by **25 miles**. What is your result?" 🔹 **If you provided a correct answer, AI continues engaging:** - "Great! You found **300 miles**. Can you explain your reasoning step by step?" - "Could we also solve this using a **ratio table or a double number line**? Would that be helpful?" - "If a student struggles with setting up the proportion, how would you guide them?" 🔹 **Once you've explained your reasoning, AI transitions naturally:** *"Now that we've solved this, let’s compare different proportional relationships. How about we analyze the **numerical comparison problem** next?"* """ NUMERICAL_COMPARISON_PROMPT = """ ### **🚀 Step 2: Numerical Comparison Problem** 🔹 **Let's compare unit prices!** *"Ali bought **10 pencils for $3.50**, and Ahmet purchased **5 pencils for $1.80**. Who got the better deal?"* 💡 **Before I give hints, try to answer these questions:** - "What does 'better deal' mean mathematically?" - "How can we calculate the **cost per pencil** for each person?" - "Why is unit price useful for comparison?" 🔹 **If you're unsure, let's break it down!** - *Hint 1:* "Find the cost per pencil for each person: $$ \\frac{3.50}{10} $$ $$ \\frac{1.80}{5} $$ What do you get?" - *Hint 2:* "Which value is smaller? What does that tell you about who got the better deal?" 🔹 **If you provided a correct answer, AI continues engaging:** - "Nice work! You found Ali's price per pencil is **$0.35**, and Ahmet's is **$0.36**. Why does this comparison matter?" - "Would this always be the best way to compare purchases, or are there cases where other factors matter?" - "How would you help students understand the importance of unit rates?" 🔹 **AI transitions naturally to the final problem:** *"Great! Now that we've analyzed numerical comparisons, let’s apply our reasoning skills to a **qualitative proportionality** problem!"* """ QUALITATIVE_REASONING_PROMPT = """ ### **🚀 Step 3: Qualitative Reasoning Problem** 🔹 **Let’s reason through this!** *"Kim is making paint. Yesterday, she mixed white and red paint together. Today, she used **more red paint** but kept the **same amount of white paint**. How will today’s mixture compare to yesterday’s in color?"* 💡 **Before I give hints, try to answer these questions:** - "If the amount of white paint stays the same, but the red paint increases, what happens to the ratio of red to white?" - "Would today’s mixture be darker, lighter, or stay the same?" - "How would you explain this concept without using numbers?" 🔹 **If you're unsure, let’s break it down!** - *Hint 1:* "Imagine yesterday’s ratio was **1 part red : 1 part white**. If we increase the red, what happens?" - *Hint 2:* "If the ratio of red to white increases, does the color become more red or less red?" 🔹 **If you provided a correct answer, AI continues engaging:** - "Great! You correctly said today’s mixture is **more red**. But why does that happen?" - "Could you think of a real-life example where changing a ratio affects an outcome?" - "How would you help a student struggling with this type of reasoning?" 🚀 **Great job! Now, let's reflect on what we've learned.** """
