Vijay Janapa Reddi 8a101cf52d Add tito grade command for simplified NBGrader interface
Implement comprehensive grading workflow wrapped behind tito CLI:
• tito grade setup - Initialize NBGrader course structure
• tito grade generate - Create instructor version with solutions
• tito grade release - Create student version without solutions
• tito grade collect - Collect student submissions
• tito grade autograde - Automatically grade submissions
• tito grade manual - Open manual grading interface
• tito grade feedback - Generate student feedback
• tito grade export - Export grades to CSV

This allows users to only learn tito commands without needing to
understand NBGrader's complex interface. All grading functionality
is accessible through simple, consistent tito commands.

Vijay Janapa Reddi 0c24d77a86 Fix module structure ordering across all modules
Standardize module structure to ensure correct section ordering:
- if __name__ block → ML Systems Thinking → Module Summary (always last)

Fixed 10 modules with incorrect ordering:
• 02_tensor, 04_layers, 05_dense, 06_spatial
• 08_dataloader, 09_autograd, 10_optimizers, 11_training
• 12_compression (consolidated 3 scattered if blocks)
• 15_mlops (consolidated 6 scattered if blocks)

All 17 modules now follow consistent structure:
1. Content and implementations
2. Main execution block (if __name__)
3. ML Systems Thinking Questions
4. Module Summary (always last section)

Updated CLAUDE.md with explicit ordering requirements to prevent future issues.

Vijay Janapa Reddi d04d66a716 Implement interactive ML Systems questions and standardize module structure
Major Educational Framework Enhancements:
• Deploy interactive NBGrader text response questions across ALL modules
• Replace passive question lists with active 150-300 word student responses
• Enable comprehensive ML Systems learning assessment and grading

TinyGPT Integration (Module 16):
• Complete TinyGPT implementation showing 70% component reuse from TinyTorch
• Demonstrates vision-to-language framework generalization principles
• Full transformer architecture with attention, tokenization, and generation
• Shakespeare demo showing autoregressive text generation capabilities

Module Structure Standardization:
• Fix section ordering across all modules: Tests → Questions → Summary
• Ensure Module Summary is always the final section for consistency
• Standardize comprehensive testing patterns before educational content

Interactive Question Implementation:
• 3 focused questions per module replacing 10-15 passive questions
• NBGrader integration with manual grading workflow for text responses
• Questions target ML Systems thinking: scaling, deployment, optimization
• Cumulative knowledge building across the 16-module progression

Technical Infrastructure:
• TPM agent for coordinated multi-agent development workflows
• Enhanced documentation with pedagogical design principles
• Updated book structure to include TinyGPT as capstone demonstration
• Comprehensive QA validation of all module structures

Framework Design Insights:
• Mathematical unity: Dense layers power both vision and language models
• Attention as key innovation for sequential relationship modeling
• Production-ready patterns: training loops, optimization, evaluation
• System-level thinking: memory, performance, scaling considerations

Educational Impact:
• Transform passive learning to active engagement through written responses
• Enable instructors to assess deep ML Systems understanding
• Provide clear progression from foundations to complete language models
• Demonstrate real-world framework design principles and trade-offs
