Asking Effective Questions

How to Ask the AI Tutor Good Questions

The AI Tutor works best when you give it clear instructions. While it understands natural language, a little structure helps it provide the perfect answer.

Tips for great questions

  • Be Specific: Instead of saying "Help me with math," try "Explain the concept of Weighted Probability found in Lecture 2."

  • Reference Your Content: Since the AI can read your specific files, reference them. "Summarize the three key points from Test File 01."

  • Use the Suggestion Chips: If you are unsure how to start, click the "Test me on..." chip. The AI will automatically look at your selected content and generate practice questions for you.

Follow-up questions

The AI maintains context, so you can treat it like a conversation:

  • "Can you give me an example of that?"

  • "Simplify that explanation for a beginner."

  • "Where is this mentioned in the text?"
