Learning Card
Purposedifferent
The Test Card turns a critical assumption into a testable claim and specifies in advance which result counts as success.For a series of incidents with a similar pattern, the method arranges individual events as branches of a common origin. It makes visible which conditions keep recurring.The Learning Card connects traceable test results to a reasoned next action while keeping the limits of the insight visible.
