With this option, you can create new teaching materials using AI, which will then serve as the basis for study quizzes. The new materials are tailored to the learning level and can be refined by AI or manually. This option is suitable if there are no appropriate teaching materials for the topic.
What are good instructions for Brian's AI when creating new teaching materials?
Good instructions are detailed and specific. They provide the AI with context about the learning objective and the learning situation and spell out the text type you want the AI to create (e.g. an instructional text, or a worksheet).
This means:
- Explain the pedagogic situation ("Mendelian genetics are being introduced to the class for the first time")
- State the learning objective ("Students should learn and understand the first two laws of Mendelian inheritance")
- List keywords that should be covered ("Explain the following terms: phenotype, recessive, allele")
- Give or request examples ("Provide an example of the variation in cat fur color in inheritance.")
- Describe the text type you want the AI to create ("An instructional text with lots of examples."
Tip: Instructions can also be copied and pasted from your lesson plan or similar sources.

How do I modify the teaching materials after the initial creation?
The first draft of the created text can be changed either by AI or manually (by simply deleting, rewriting, or adding sentences).
For the AI, it helps to describe precisely what should be added or changed. It also helps to explicitly note what should be preserved.
Example: "Keep the text exactly as it is, but add two more examples: inheritance of ear shapes in dogs and eye color in humans."
Can I change the quiz after the content has been created?
Of course. Every question, answer, and explanation can be improved or deleted. And with the "+Add question" option, additional questions can be created both by AI and manually.
