Pedagogical Review of Lecture Slides

Perform a comprehensive pedagogical review.

Steps

1. Identify the file specified in $ARGUMENTS

   • If no argument, ask user which lecture to review
   • If just a name, look in Quarto/ or Slides/

2. Launch the pedagogy-reviewer agent with the full file path

   • The agent checks 13 pedagogical patterns
   • Performs deck-level analysis (narrative arc, pacing, visual rhythm, notation)
   • Considers student perspective (prerequisites, objections)

3. The agent returns its report (the agent is read-only); this skill saves it to: quality_reports/[FILENAME_WITHOUT_EXT]_pedagogy_report.md

4. Present summary to user:

   • Patterns followed vs violated (out of 13)
   • Deck-level assessments
   • Critical recommendations (top 3-5)

Important Notes

• This is a read-only review — no files are edited
• Focuses on pedagogy not visual layout (use /visual-audit for that)
• For a combined review, use /slide-excellence instead
