Concept Guess
Six tries to find a five-letter idea from AI, education, or civic life. The clue stays on screen, so this rewards thinking rather than guessing blind.
How to play
- Type a five-letter guess and press Enter.
- Green means the right letter in the right place; amber means right letter, wrong place.
- The clue stays visible the whole time — use it.
- Press New word for a different term from the bank.
What it teaches
Vocabulary is the bottleneck in almost every argument about automated systems. You cannot object to a threshold, a proxy, or a label until you can name it. Each solved word ends with a short note on what it actually means in practice.
For educators
Works well as a five-minute opener. Ask students to write their own clue for the day's word before revealing the note — a good clue is proof of understanding.
