Feature implementation
Turn passive lessons into active learning moments.
We can embed open-ended questions in your course so learners respond in their own words and receive AI-guided feedback in the flow of the lesson.
What the learner experiences
A safe space to practice the material, not just read it.
Learners read an author-written prompt, type a free-form response, and the AI replies conversationally. Questions can be single-turn or multi-turn, and the first answer can unlock the lesson's Continue button so practice happens before progressing.
Why course owners care
A richer signal of engagement than a completion checkbox.
Open-ended questions give course owners evidence that learners can apply the material, not just click through it. The tutor shares memory with these answers, so support stays connected across the course.
Open-ended questions, answered
How is this different from a quiz?
Quizzes check recall with set answers. Open-ended questions invite a free-form response and an AI conversation, so learners articulate and apply ideas in their own words.
Can learners be required to respond before continuing?
Yes. On the first answer the embed can unlock the course's Continue button, and an optional skip can be configured per question.
Do you set this up for us?
Yes. CourseTutor is a custom implementation. We configure the prompts, behavior, and theming around your course content and goals.
