How does mastery work?

Objectives move from introduced to practiced to mastered. Mastery needs practice plus completed prerequisites.

Three states, not a percentage
Introduced means the idea has been shown. Practiced means the learner produced work — a quiz, prompt revision, project deliverable, or interview answer. Mastered means the evidence cleared the bar and every prerequisite is already mastered.
What counts as evidence
A Quiz Me or exam score of 80% or higher can mark mastery. Lower scores still count as practice. Projects use a rubric. Interviews store scored answers. Chat alone can introduce an idea; it is not enough to master it.
You cannot skip the foundation
The server refuses mastery when a prerequisite is still open. That keeps a Pioneer from “finishing” evaluation design before they can explain tokens.
