01 What Is DeepDojo.AI, and How Does It Help You Learn?
The course gives you direction, the AI helps you understand and practice, and your answers and revisions help you check your understanding. Start with a short passage or a question, depending on what you need.
Tutorials and AI Practice
DeepDojo.AI is a learning platform where you can read a tutorial and work with an AI coach in the same course workspace. Ask about a passage as you read it. You can also try a practice question, explain an idea for the AI to check, or ask where you need more practice.
Each course has several chapters. Every chapter has a learning goal, such as telling two concepts apart, explaining a method, or choosing what to do in a given situation. In the course workspace, the “current task” is the chapter you are studying.
You can start like this:
Check the lesson goals → Read → Ask or practice → Use feedback to reviseAsk as soon as you reach something you want to clarify. Once you have a basic understanding, try answering or explaining it yourself.
Choose How to Learn
Start by reading “What You Will Complete in This Lesson,” then read the explanations and examples. When a passage holds you up, open the AI coach and ask about it.
Each lesson opens in general conversation, where you can ask a question and receive a direct answer. For focused learning or practice in the current chapter, choose from eight teaching modes:
| What you want to do | Mode to choose |
|---|---|
| Clear up a question | Q&A |
| Get guidance as you read | Guided Study |
| Organize how ideas relate to one another | Mind Map |
| Check what you can remember without looking | Active Recall |
| Answer short questions to reinforce key points | Flashcards |
| Check whether you can explain something clearly | Feynman Technique |
| Check the reasons behind a judgment | Socratic Method |
| Find what needs more practice | Progress Check |
You can ask other one-off questions in general conversation, too. General Assistant provides a separate thread for outside tasks such as translating an email or discussing code.
The two areas work together as you read and interact:

│ Reread an unclear passage. │ │ Read feedback. Try it yourself. │
└──────────────────────────────────┘ └─────────────────────────────────┘
Ask a question → ← Get feedbackGet Feedback on Your Answers
After choosing a mode, share your thinking with the AI. A brief answer is enough to start. Your answer gives it something concrete to check: which ideas have you explained clearly, and which need more work?
Suppose you are studying the water cycle and have just read about evaporation. You could explain your understanding like this:
When water warms up, it can turn into water vapor and enter the air.
The AI can check what you mean and help you fill any gaps.
An explanation or mind map may make sense while you read it. Can you explain the idea yourself? Try putting it in your own words or answering a short question to see whether you can explain and use it.
Choose Your Learning Path
The chapter list shows the suggested learning path. The AI coach uses the current chapter to help you understand and practice, so you can ask questions and get feedback as you read.
For example, in a science course, you might have trouble telling evaporation and condensation apart. Use Q&A to clear up the difference, then choose a way to practice. If you can answer questions but struggle to explain the ideas, try the Feynman Technique.
After a correct answer, a finished explanation, or a finalized mind map, you stay in the current chapter. You choose modes and chapters manually, so you can stay and practice, pause, reread the tutorial, or open the chapter list when you want to move on.
Start with the mode you need most. After that, decide whether to keep practicing or return to your reading.
