Exam question tips: working with AI in LearnUpon
The quality of AI-generated questions depends on the quality and volume of content you provide. The larger the source text, the more varied the questions the AI can generate. If you provide a brief text and request 10 questions, the resulting questions are repetitive.
You can use as many or as few of the questions you need, or discard all questions and start over as required.
You save each set of questions generated by the AI as a separate question pool. You can’t save all the questions you generate with the AI interface into a single pool. When it’s time to assemble an exam, you can use multiple pools in 1 exam, to provide a wide variety of questions. See Exams: create an exam.
After you create and save a pool with the AI, you edit the pool further through the existing question pool interface.
If your organization opts out of the AI feature, your AI-generated question pools stay in your portal.
