- Chegg (CHGG, Financial) introduces "Create," an AI-driven tool for personalized study materials.
- Create allows students to generate custom practice tests and flashcards from their class notes.
- The functionality includes metacognitive strategies and detailed feedback to enhance learning.
Chegg, Inc. (CHGG) has announced the launch of its innovative Create functionality, aimed at providing students with personalized, AI-powered study tools. This new feature allows users to generate practice tests and flashcards directly from their class materials, such as notes. By doing so, the tool offers a tailored study experience that aligns with classroom learning.
Create leverages advanced AI algorithms to formulate individualized practice questions, incorporating plausible distractors to encourage critical thinking and reasoning. Unlike conventional study tools that rely on pre-set materials, Create uses each student's class content to instantly tailor questions, focusing on specific topics and challenges they face.
The new functionality also integrates metacognitive strategies, helping students reflect on their learning process. The tool provides hints and asks students to rate their confidence in their answers. This feature aids in self-assessment and retention of knowledge.
At the conclusion of a practice set, Create delivers a comprehensive report detailing correct and incorrect answers, accompanied by confidence ratings. This feedback aims to bolster the hyper-correction effect, enhancing memory retention for correct answers and identifying areas needing further focus.
Chegg's CEO, Nathan Schultz, highlighted that Create represents a significant step toward a more customized learning approach. "This functionality not only tailors study tools to each student's unique needs but also provides essential feedback to help them stay engaged," Schultz stated.
As a publicly traded company under the ticker CHGG, Chegg continues to expand its educational offerings, striving to make learning more efficient and personalized for students worldwide.
