Spark is the visible surface of HEXI — a coaching card that appears mid-session, precisely when your compound intelligence detects something actionable. Not a recap. Not a summary. A real-time intervention.

"What is not consciously noticed cannot be learned. Noticing is a necessary condition for acquisition." — Schmidt (1990)

Phoneme gap: /ʁ/ → 52

Your uvular R on "vraiment" scored 52. That's the single phoneme costing you Ring 1 movement. 3 Island reps on this word will shift it.

Flege (1995): L2 phoneme categories form through targeted production practice.

What Spark notices

Pronunciation

Phoneme-level gap identified by Azure real-time scoring.

Fluency

Hesitation, filler words, or pace drop below natural threshold.

Vocabulary

Over-reliance on a word or a gap in synonymic range.

Ring movement

HEXI detects a plateau or breakthrough — recalibrates targets.

The trigger

Spark fires when HEXI has enough signal to act — not before.

Three conditions must be true before a Spark appears: the gap must be statistically significant (not a one-off), the learner must be in a state to absorb it (not in active production), and there must be a specific action available. No action = no Spark.

01

Pattern confirmed

Same gap seen 2+ times this session or 3+ times in compound history.

02

Right moment

HEXI waits for natural pause — not mid-word, not mid-thought.

03

Action exists

A specific workout or adjustment is available before Spark fires.

The research

Schmidt, 1990

"Noticing is a necessary condition for acquisition. What is not consciously noted cannot be learned. Spark is the noticing mechanism."

Dörnyei, 2009

"Motivationally significant feedback — delivered at the moment of performance — has the strongest effect on continued effort and engagement."

Skehan, 1998

"The learner cannot simultaneously attend to fluency, accuracy, and complexity. The coach's job is to direct attention strategically."
