Learning Assistant

Inspiration

We took inspiration from the demand of teaching Artificial Intelligence to the school students. We thought that understanding AI concepts would be very difficult for school students. So, we made a tool to help them. Later we found out that the tool can be used as a "Learning Assistant" in general.

What it does

It simplifies a given text for a specific age and specific class students. It then asks MCQs to gauge understanding.

How we built it

We built a web application using Node.js. We used LastMile AI API to access GPT-4 in the server side for passage simplification and MCQ generation.

Challenges we ran into

Making the web application usable to multiple users at the same time.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We made a tool for school students to make a given passage comprehensible and gauging their understanding of the simplified passage.

What we learned

We learned prompt engineering.

What's next for Learning Assistant

Incorporate functionalities for Image and Audio data.
