Most study tools hand you a wall of text and hope. The Interactive Lesson does the other thing: it teaches you, one board at a time, and stops to check whether you followed.
It is built from your own material. Upload the chapter, the slide deck, the case notes or the past paper, and the lesson is written from what is actually in front of you rather than from something generic about the topic.
What a lesson actually looks like
A lesson is a room. On one side there is a tutor talking. On the other there is a board that fills in as she speaks. You move at your pace: every board waits for you.
The room: she talks, the board fills in behind her, and nothing advances until you say go on.
She teaches first, then checks
This is the part that makes it a lesson rather than a quiz with narration. An idea is built across several boards before anything is asked of you. Only then does a question arrive, and what you answer decides what happens next.
Answer it well and she moves on to push the idea further. Answer it the way people usually get it wrong and she does not simply mark it wrong: she goes to the segment written for that particular misunderstanding, takes it apart, and comes back to the question.
Getting it wrong is part of the design. The lesson has somewhere to go when you do.
Ask her something in the middle
You are not limited to answering. At any board you can stop and ask your own question, in your own words, and she answers it from the same material before carrying on where she left off. Nothing is lost by interrupting.
She speaks, in your language
The lesson is spoken aloud as well as written, in every language the platform supports, including full Arabic. If you prefer to read, turn the voice off and it works exactly the same. If you prefer to listen while walking, everything she teaches is in what she says, not stranded in bullet points on a board you are not looking at.
It remembers where you stopped
A lesson is not something to finish in one sitting if you do not want to. Close it at board nine and it opens at board nine, with the segments you completed still marked. Restart it from the beginning whenever you want a second pass before an exam.
Which plans have it
Interactive Lessons are on every plan, including the free one, with a monthly allowance that grows as the plan does.
| Plan | Interactive Lessons per month |
|---|---|
| Free | 3 |
| Basic | 5 |
| Premium | 10 |
| Pro | 20 |
Organisation and Learning and Development plans include them too, with allowances set for teams rather than individuals.
Getting a good one
A lesson can only teach what your material contains. A thin upload gives a short lesson, and a chapter with real substance gives one with somewhere to go. If a lesson feels brief, the fix is usually more material on that subject rather than a different topic.
Open a subject, upload what you are studying, and choose Interactive Lesson. It takes about a minute to build, and then she starts talking.
