  "supportingContext": "The methodology combines analog teaching with digital reinforcement through a three-step process. First, children learn narrative structure using the simplified Pixar Story Spine framework on a whiteboard. Second, they independently create original stories without AI assistance. Third, their verbal story descriptions are converted into visual images using AI generators, providing immediate feedback. This approach positions AI as a reward and validation tool rather than a content creator, closing the creative feedback loop and demonstrating to children that their imaginative ideas have tangible value and power.",
