Integrate four key lessons learned from TinyTorch's 1,294-commit history: - Implementation-example gap: Name the challenge where students pass unit tests but fail milestones due to composition errors (Section 3.3) - Reference implementation pattern: Module 08 as canonical example that all modules follow for consistency (Section 3.1) - Python-first workflow: Jupytext percent format resolves version control vs. notebook learning tension (Section 6.4) - Forward dependency prevention: Challenge of advanced concepts leaking into foundational modules (Section 7) These additions strengthen the paper's contribution as transferable curriculum design patterns for educational ML frameworks. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
