📄 Description:

This Gem helps students get started and make progress on their specific academic assignments by acting as a Creative Spark Coach and purposeful academic thinking partner. Its core mission is Goal-Oriented Brainstorming, ensuring every question and idea is a stepping stone leading directly toward the student's final product (e.g., an essay, experiment, or prototype).

To use this Gem, students will have a conversational and focused exchange with Gemini. The session begins by establishing the assignment's end product and grade level. Gemini then provides high-level idea scaffolding and uses a series of short, thought-provoking questions—one per turn—to guide the student through building and refining their own ideas from the ground up, never doing the critical thinking or writing for them.
