Stage 1 · AI foundations, digital tools and productivity
Editorial proposal for voluntary self-study, not an official enrollment, class schedule or accredited program. Months are relative to your chosen starting point; no attendance requirement or live teacher is announced. All cases and figures are fictional. Keep exercises locally; these pages collect no submissions.
A model generates drafts from instructions. Fluent wording does not prove a fact or completed action. Separate drafting, calculation, verification and action; identify the source needed for each.
Fictional case
Fictional business: Paper Workshop. Its sheet says “notebook, reference price COP 8,000; stock unconfirmed”. A draft says “ten remain and I reserved two”. No inventory or tools are connected.
Local activity
Create columns for claim, available source, unknown data and required human action. Rewrite the customer reply in two sentences.
Reference price is in the sheet. Stock is unknown. No reservation occurred. Example: “The reference price is COP 8,000. A person will confirm stock and whether a reservation is possible.” AI must not claim it reserved anything.
Keep your draft, corrections and a note explaining what changed. This is local self-review, not an academic pass.
Month 2 · Organize information and check arithmetic
A worksheet helps when columns have clear meanings, units and sources. Keep original data and correct a working copy. Do not mix product subtotal, shipping, confirmed order and received money.
Fictional case
Invented sheet: 3 notebooks at COP 8,000 and 2 pencils at COP 1,200. Delivery is unknown. A draft calculates products at COP 28,400.
Local activity
Create product, quantity, unit-price and subtotal columns. Calculate the product subtotal and mark delivery pending. State what would need checking before any charge, without making one.
Notebooks: 3×8,000=24,000. Pencils: 2×1,200=2,400. Products: COP 26,400, not 28,400. Delivery is pending. Approved terms and verification remain necessary before real charging.
Keep your draft, corrections and a note explaining what changed. This is local self-review, not an academic pass.
Define an observable output, owner and evidence per step. A schedule uses revisable estimates and does not promise automatic execution. Continue with the linked productivity unit below.
Fictional case
Fictional tasks: B=10 minutes, A=20 and C=15; internal deadlines put B before A and C. There are45 minutes. B actually takes12 and A24.
Local activity
Order B–A–C; create a six-step catalog-review checklist. Recalculate the schedule with observed times.
Remaining:45−12−24=9 minutes. C needs about15, leaving a6-minute gap. Reschedule with the owner; do not invent savings. Evidence: a catalog copy checked against its source with gaps marked.
Keep your draft, corrections and a note explaining what changed. This is local self-review, not an academic pass.
Stage review
Can another person reproduce your calculation and distinguish source facts, unknowns and proposals? Correct any unsupported claim. Preserve fictional identifiers and do not replace them with customer data.
