Your course has a final assignment. It may not have an ending.

When the last module simply stops, nobody names what changed. In the planner’s own words, the change isn’t witnessed, so it fades.

What it does

The Resolution Planner takes the book’s four acts within the third act. You write how each one works in your course, and word counts and flags appear under each answer as you type. It scores every act out of 10, maps the four as a path, quotes your most developed act back to you and ranks three moves, weakest first.

Four sequential acts within the third act: 1. The performance or submission (the final project, witnessed). 2. Reception and feedback (the community responds with specific recognition of growth; the moment that confers new identity). 3. The reflection (who were you when you entered? who are you now?). 4. Integration and looking forward (the learner claims the new identity as a platform), with the mentor’s farewell.

The Cinematic Curriculum Method, Appendix §19, The Resolution Sequence

What you’ll do

  1. Write how your course handles synthesis, the final performance, recognition and the farewell.
  2. Press «Plan the resolution».
  3. Work through the three moves and plan again.

What you get. A resolution-strength score out of 100 with a verdict, the four acts mapped as a path, what the analysis noticed in your own words, and three priority moves. The report downloads as a one-page PDF.
