The TIDA Checker

Before you run a micro-experiment in your classroom, check what the evidence actually says. Tell this tool where you are in your TIDA cycle, and it builds a research-focused prompt you paste into ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, or Perplexity — so every idea you test is grounded in evidence, not just enthusiasm.

Paste it into one of these, then keep asking follow-up questions — that's where the real evidence conversation happens.
