# PWR-128 — Epistemic humility: learner worksheet Release: Revision 7T · Full Tutorial Edition Estimated time: Estimated 19 min reading and worksheet pass Difficulty: Introductory Equipment: Basic stationery or digital tools — The five fictional cases H1–H5 in the fixture; no personal belief, live disagreement or partner is needed.; Classification key: AR = accuracy-sensitive revision supported by better evidence; BU = bounded uncertainty preserved because credible evidence conflicts; PL = polite language without demonstrated revision; DF = deference or lowered confidence without better evidence, especially under power; NI = insufficient information for a humility inference.; Evidence-order card: current official dated notice outranks an undated blog or old flyer for the supplied scheduling question; two current official notices with conflicting dates require BU and verification rather than forced certainty.; Worksheet with fields for evidence quality, answer change, confidence change, power/affiliation flag, observable action, allowed label and non-claim.; Boundary card: FICTIONAL BENIGN TOPICS ONLY; no personality rank, ideology, debate, disclosure, surveillance, compelled agreement or attempt to make another person open-minded.; Answer key hidden until every case has a label. Space: Desk / seated Automated structural checklist: 10 of 10 structural checks present Evidence quality/context: G1; Focused research depth Automated method-quality band: Established Method-rating basis: Structure coverage, instruction/check specificity, alternative distinctness, source troubleshooting, comparison depth and whether purpose/check fields are authored rather than derived. Editorial review: Pending manual editorial sign off ## Before you begin - [ ] I read the tutorial authority and stop conditions. - [ ] I have the required equipment/space or a declared accessible alternative. ## Canonical source context This tutorial teaches evidence-sensitive revision, not a personality label. For each benign fictional case, you rank the initial source, inspect new evidence and power context, write your own final answer and confidence, choose a verification action and then classify the pattern. Supplied final answers stay in the staged key so the learner actually performs the update rather than merely reading one. Target outcome: Define epistemic humility without inheriting mythology or broader claims. Explain what the current evidence supports and what it does not establish. Use the declared measurement boundary and recognise misleading proxies. Complete only the separately governed capability practice inside its declared limits. Make a retention, transfer, maintenance, provider or stop decision without overclaiming. ### Authority and setup conditions - Use only the bounded configuration. Choose a neutral, low-stakes claim. Avoid identity-threatening, traumatic, political or relationship disputes for the first cycle. - Stop if the frame becomes compelled disclosure, debate pressure, belief scoring or an attempt to make someone compliant. - Stop if power imbalance, identity threat or distress makes reflection unsafe. ### Required or supplied materials - The five fictional cases H1–H5 in the fixture; no personal belief, live disagreement or partner is needed. - Classification key: AR = accuracy-sensitive revision supported by better evidence; BU = bounded uncertainty preserved because credible evidence conflicts; PL = polite language without demonstrated revision; DF = deference or lowered confidence without better evidence, especially under power; NI = insufficient information for a humility inference. - Evidence-order card: current official dated notice outranks an undated blog or old flyer for the supplied scheduling question; two current official notices with conflicting dates require BU and verification rather than forced certainty. - Worksheet with fields for evidence quality, answer change, confidence change, power/affiliation flag, observable action, allowed label and non-claim. - Boundary card: FICTIONAL BENIGN TOPICS ONLY; no personality rank, ideology, debate, disclosure, surveillance, compelled agreement or attempt to make another person open-minded. - Answer key hidden until every case has a label. ### Supplied fixture Benign fictional cases. Write the final answer, confidence, action and label before opening the staged model key. | Case | Question | Initial answer and confidence | New evidence | Power or affiliation context | Learner final answer and confidence | Learner verification action | Learner label | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | H1 | Saturday museum opening time | 9:00; 85%, undated travel blog | Current dated official museum schedule says 10:00 | Evidence supplied by an unfamiliar peer | [record] | [record] | [AR/BU/PL/DF/NI] | | H2 | Community library closing time | 18:00; 80%, current dated library page | Manager asserts 17:00 verbally but supplies no source | Manager controls the fictional person's work rota | [record] | [record] | [AR/BU/PL/DF/NI] | | H3 | Planetarium show length | 45 minutes; 90%, current ticket | No new evidence; a friend asks ‘Are you sure?’ | Close friend with no formal power | [record] | [record] | [AR/BU/PL/DF/NI] | | H4 | Lecture location | Hall A; 95%, old flyer | Two current official notices conflict: Hall B and Hall C | No power relationship | [record] | [record] | [AR/BU/PL/DF/NI] | | H5 | Garden tour start time | 14:00; 70%, current booking email | Group leader prefers 13:30 but gives no revised notice | Leader controls participation in the fictional group | [record] | [record] | [AR/BU/PL/DF/NI] | ## 1. Copy the five labels and evidence-order rule Copy the five labels and evidence-order rule. Do not infer humility from a confidence number or courteous phrase alone. Why: “Copy the five labels and evidence-order rule” creates the auditable value, condition or statement needed for the tutorial’s later comparison and conclusion. Success check: A legible entry directly completes “Copy the five labels and evidence-order rule” and records the requested condition, decision or boundary without adding a new claim. Accessible alternative: Complete the same research action — “Copy the five labels and evidence-order rule. Do not infer humility from a confidence number or courteous phrase alone.” — using speech-to-text, text-to-speech, enlarged text, keyboard-only navigation, shorter work blocks or a support person. Preserve this declared check: “A legible entry directly completes “Copy the five labels and evidence-order rule” and records the requested condition, decision or boundary without adding a new claim.” Do not convert the research task into capability practice.

Choose AR, BU, PL, DF or NI and explain the evidence path Choose AR, BU, PL, DF or NI and explain the evidence path. Revision counts as accuracy-sensitive only when better evidence supports it. Why: “Choose AR, BU, PL, DF or NI and explain the evidence path” fixes the exact Epistemic humility configuration or decision before later observations are compared. Success check: The output directly answers “Choose AR, BU, PL, DF or NI and explain the evidence path”, names the relevant distinction and stays within the supplied record. Accessible alternative: Complete the same research action — “Choose AR, BU, PL, DF or NI and explain the evidence path. Revision counts as accuracy-sensitive only when better evidence supports it.” — using speech-to-text, text-to-speech, enlarged text, keyboard-only navigation, shorter work blocks or a support person.

Open the staged key, compare without rewriting the original, and finish with… Open the staged key, compare without rewriting the original, and finish with a non-claim about personality or broad open-mindedness. Why: “Open the staged key, compare without rewriting the original, and finish with a non-claim about personality or broad open-mindedness” isolates the named evidence distinction so the learner can interpret Epistemic humility without extending the claim. Success check: The output directly answers “Open the staged key, compare without rewriting the original, and finish with a non-claim about personality or broad open-mindedness”, names the relevant distinction and stays within the supplied record. Accessible alternative: Complete the same research action — “Open the staged key, compare without rewriting the original, and finish with a non-claim about personality or broad open-mindedness.” — using speech-to-text, text-to-speech, enlarged text, keyboard-only navigation, shorter work blocks or a support person.
