Book Buddy AI is an interactive learning tool that helps students better understand their textbooks through AI-powered explanations and summaries. For teachers, it provides valuable classroom support by offering ready-made summaries, clarifications, and insights that make lesson planning and instruction more effective.
Step 1: Open a Supported Book
- From the Book Buddy section, select the title you wish to interact with.
Step 2: Start a Conversation
- "To explore what help is available, tell Book Buddy who you are and ask how it can help you, like this:
"I am a student, how can you help me?" OR "I am a teacher, how can you help me?"
- Book Buddy will give you a quick summary of the types of support it offers for that book (e.g. summaries, explanations, definitions, etc.).
- Students may ask specific academic questions like:
- "Explain the Pythagorean Theorem"
- "Summarise Chapter 5"
- "What is a chemical bond?"
- Teachers may ask for assistance, such as:
- "Prepare a 20 minute lesson plan for chapter 2"
- "Prepare a 10 mark question on rock types and their formation"
- "Prepare a 10 question multiple choice quiz on chapter 6"
- Use your home language:
You can ask Book Buddy questions in your own language, even if the book is written in another. It will reply in the language you use.
Step 3: Switch to Another Book
- Go back to the Book Buddy menu
- Choose a different title from your list of AI-supported books
Book Buddy will load that title, and you can start chatting right away.
Previous chats are saved for each book, so when you come back, your conversation will still be there.
