The four heights

The same task, four distances: today's deadline, the next reviewer, the stuck moment, the pattern.

I need the class-level snapshot for the week. Show the response summary for the 'Week 8 comprehension check' so I can report participation and question-level correctness to department on Friday; confirm response count and any questions with over 30% blank answers before I share.

Where am I losing time or credibility, and what habit should I change to stop reporting premature summaries? Suggest a simple checklist I can run before sharing numbers with faculty.

Every task here came from the work, not from a feature list — which is why the prompts name what you want done and never the button that does it. The tool changes; the work does not.
