Accessing the AI Assistant

To launch the AI Assistant, open any course in the Editor. At the bottom of your screen, you’ll see the AI input bar. Click anywhere in the bar to expand the full chat history panel.

This is where you can type in instructions, questions, or tasks you'd like the AI to handle. Alongside text input, the Assistant provides several powerful tools right in the prompt bar:

• Microphone: Click the microphone icon to dictate your prompt using voice-to-text.
• Paperclip (Sources): Click the paperclip icon to upload or select source documents, grounding the AI's generation in your specific materials.
• Recipes: Click the Recipes button to quickly apply saved, custom AI skills to your course.
• Settings: Click the settings icon to adjust the AI's image generation model, content strategy, and formatting preferences.

1. Editing Existing Content

Use the Assistant to quickly update or revise existing content across a page or course. This is especially useful when policy changes, branding updates, or new standards need to be reflected in multiple places.

Example prompt:

"Find and update any references to the 2023 security policy and replace with 2024 policy language: 'Employees must now complete two-factor setup within 14 days of onboarding.'"

You can edit:

• A specific tile (text, media, questions, etc.)
• An entire page
• All pages in a course (by asking it to rewrite or apply changes globally)

Note: If the AI needs more context before making a large edit, it may pause and ask you multiple-choice or open-ended clarifying questions in the chat.

2. Generating New Content

The Assistant can also help you generate new content from scratch. Whether you need a quiz question, a supporting paragraph, or an entire page, start with a clear prompt and let AI do the heavy lifting.

Example prompt:

"Generate a new tile that explains the purpose of an employee resource group (ERG) with a bulleted list of typical ERG goals."

You can:

• Add new tiles based on a topic
• Auto-generate pages for specific learning objectives
• Extend courses with examples, scenarios, or definitions

3. Translating Content

To localize your course for a global audience, use the Assistant to translate content. You can select the language you'd like to translate to, and the AI will preserve your structure while converting the language.

Example prompt:

"Translate this page into Spanish. Maintain professional tone and educational clarity."

Translations apply to:

• Individual tiles
• Whole pages
• Entire courses

4. Showing Analytics

The Assistant acts as a shortcut to navigate your workspace. Ask the Assistant to open your analytics insights so you can review course performance, engagement stats, or quiz scores.

Example prompt:

"Show me the analytics for this course."

You can:

• Quickly open assessment performance views
• Analyze learner engagement by page
• Spot trends across courses to refine your content

5. Showing Version History

Need to roll back a change or see how a course evolved? The Assistant can help you access version history, compare drafts, or restore previous content.

Additionally, the Assistant automatically creates safety checkpoints after large AI edits. You can click Restore to checkpoint directly in the chat log if you aren't happy with the AI's recent changes.

Example prompt:

"Open the version history for this course."

You can also use the History icon (clock symbol) in the top-right of the expanded chat panel to load your previous AI Assistant conversations from today, last week, or last month.

Tips for Prompting Effectively

The more context you give, the more relevant the output. Here are a few best practices:

• Include the type of content you want (tile, page, quiz, summary, etc.)
• Mention tone (formal, conversational, instructional)
• Use quotes or structured input for specific language
• Add source links or attach documents (using the paperclip icon) when factual accuracy is key
