Review Your Learning Status and Choose a Next Step

Check Your Learning Status

Choose [Progress Check] from the mode row
              ↓
┌───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐

│ What most needs work in this chapter?  [Tier icon] [Send] │
└───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

The selected mode and any progress information appear at the top of the white message box, above a thin divider. If there is no conversation history, you will see icons, brief instructions, and an example. Select About this mode to ask the AI for an explanation. To switch modes, select × and choose another one.

After some study, the difficulty may be deciding what to work on first. Progress Check gives you a way to ask. The AI compares your work with the chapter's requirements and considers what you have shown so far and what still needs practice.

For example:

Based on my answers in this chapter, what should I work on first?

It looks at your answers, explanations, practice, and revisions across the chapter's teaching modes.

You can choose this mode as soon as you start learning and request a check directly. When the AI needs more to go on, it asks for a short answer or judgment to assess.

Find What Needs Practice

Suppose you have studied evaporation and condensation in a science course. You remember the definitions, but still mix them up in scenario questions.

The AI may note that you know the definitions but still have trouble applying them to a situation. That gives you a specific next step: choose one scenario and explain why you answered as you did.

That is easier to act on than “Practice more and improve your understanding.” Afterward, you can say:

Please use my new answer to check whether I've made this point clear now.

If the AI needs more to go on, it asks for another short answer. If your existing work is enough, it can explain what you have achieved and finish the check.

Understand the Assessment

The feedback focuses on your work in the current chapter. For example, “This explanation left out a condition” points to a specific answer.

When reading the feedback, think back to how you answered. Did the idea come to you on your own, after a hint, or after you had seen the answer? Those are different conditions. Correcting an answer with help can show progress. The assessment also considers the help you used.

If the assessment does not fit what happened, ask:

Which answer are you basing that on? I corrected it later; please consider that too.

Use the result to choose what to practice now. It reflects your current performance and can change with new answers and corrections. You can also return later for review.

The Learning Status Panel

Open Learning progress, then select the “View your learning status” icon at the top right to see feedback on the chapter's learning topics.

└───────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

The chart icon's tooltip is “View your learning status.” Use the back arrow at the top left to return to Learning progress, then go back again to the AI conversation.

The panel updates automatically as you use the teaching modes. At first, there may be no records. Check “Last updated” to see when the displayed assessment was refreshed.

Status	What it means
Not yet assessed	More answers are needed before an assessment
In progress	You have started to understand this topic; keep practicing
Learned	Your answers so far meet this learning requirement
Reinforced	You have shown this understanding again in later practice
To strengthen	This point needs more practice

Expand an item to read the learning feedback and related work. Learning reviews lets you revisit recent records. The labels reflect your current learning status and can change as you practice.

The panel and Progress Check serve different purposes. The panel organizes your learning records automatically. Progress Check is a conversation about what you want to assess now. Review each in its own location; “Last updated” shows when the panel's assessment was refreshed.

What to Do After the Check

What needs work	What you can do
A concept is still unclear	Ask in Q&A
A tutorial passage does not make sense	Work through that short passage in Guided Study
The relationships between ideas are confusing	Organize them in Mind Map
You understand while reading but cannot recall afterward	Use Active Recall
You want to reinforce several key points	Use Flashcards
You can answer short questions but cannot explain clearly	Use the Feynman Technique
You can state a view but your reasons are weak	Use the Socratic Method

Select a suitable mode and try one small activity. Use your new answer to decide what to practice next.

Progress Check and Progress Reports

Progress Check helps answer “What should I work on right now?” It gives a current assessment and any next step you need.

A progress report helps answer “What progress have I made in this chapter, and what still needs work?” It provides written feedback only. Generating one requires available AI credits and at least ten complete exchanges in the current chapter’s teaching modes. General conversation and General Assistant are excluded from both this count and the chapter’s learning status assessment.

The choice comes back to what you need. For something to practice now, use Progress Check. For a look back at this period of work, open the document icon at the top right of Learning progress and generate or view a progress report.

For a review of a period of learning in this chapter, follow progress reports and learning review. If an option is unavailable or generation fails, see troubleshooting.
