New AI Study Tool

This year The Institute of Education is introducing a new AI based note taking and study tool to help students achieve better results.

This tool analyses class recordings and produces detailed text notes, audio notes and flashcards from every class.  It automatically produces high quality class specific notes, empowering students to focus and engage with class content. This AI tool has been developed by Jamworks – a specialist developer of AI based learning solutions.

What are the Benefits?

Distraction-free note taking

The tool automatically produces high quality class specific notes, empowering students to focus and engage with class content.

Interactive Learning Materials

The tool turns your class recordings into a set of highly effective interactive learning materials. By augmenting existing content with the power, precision and interactivity of AI, the tool enhances the learning experience for all students.

Personalised Learning

The tool produces engaging learning materials that are highly relevant to each individual student. The tool enables students to receive highly individualised AI tuition in a manner and style that suits them best.

Safeguarded AI

Unlike other AI learning platforms or apps like ChatGPT, this tool provides lecture content and lecture slides as ground truth to each conversation. This massively reduces the risk of the AI hallucinating incorrect responses. Additionally, this tool does not allow its AI chat bot to engage in non-educational conversations or to produce essays or assignments.

Productivity Boosting

The tool provides a sophisticated suite of engaging, personalised and exciting AI learning materials makes learning more fun and effective. The tool saves time for students reviewing content and enables them to gain a deeper understanding of the topics that interest or challenge them the most. This boosts study productivity and helps students achieve the grades they deserve.
