How to use the Exam Mistake Analyzer.
Mistake analysis should identify the reasoning step that failed. Classify recurring patterns so the next practice session targets a cause rather than repeats everything.
Make the workflow fit your task.
Compare the learner's attempt with the correct reasoning and locate the first meaningful divergence. Classify the error and propose targeted practice, explaining the underlying concept instead of only replacing the answer.

Illustrative input and output · a teaching example, not a live WebAct run
Example input
Student answers 2/5 + 1/5 as 3/10.
Completed example
The denominators represent equal-sized parts and stay 5. Practice common-denominator addition and explain why the answer is 3/5.
Load this input into the prompt, then copy it to WebAct to try the task. Your result may differ from the illustration.
Decisions and troubleshooting.
Should every wrong answer be treated as a lack of knowledge?
Distinguish conceptual misunderstanding, procedural error and transcription. Different causes call for different practice or checking strategies.
Why do repeated exercises fail to fix the same mistake?
Ask the learner to explain the step they are using. Correcting the result without changing the rule they believe can leave the error intact.
Try it with your own source.
Replace the example with your material in the task prompt. Keep the requirements you need, then copy the task into WebAct.
