03 Where to Start After Entering a Course

What You Will Complete in This Lesson

This lesson clarifies the first step after entering a course: after opening the lesson, read the current task entry and the body first, check the task directory only when you need to locate or switch, and use Q&A mode when something is unclear, uncertain, or needs confirmation.

You do not need to memorize every region of the page. You only need to know what to look at first when you enter, and when each region is commonly used.

3.1 New Learners Are Easily Distracted by the Interface

After entering a course, you can see tutorial content, task list, AI entry, and other areas.

Many new learners naturally test every button first:

What is this button?
What is this mode?
Can I click here?
Do I need to configure something first?

This makes learning unnecessarily complicated.

DeepDojo.AI courses do not require you to master the whole interface before learning. The recommended order is:

Read the task entry for this lesson first
  ↓
Then read the body
  ↓
Ask AI for clarification when unclear
  ↓
Use task directory when you need locating or switching

If you keep this order, you are less likely to be pulled off course by other features.

3.2 Read “What You Will Complete in This Lesson” First

Below each lesson title, you will see:

What You Will Complete in This Lesson

This is the entry to the current task. It is not a homework reminder, and it is not asking you to submit something immediately. It tells you:

If you skip this entry, you may read the body and still not know what this lesson is really asking for.

So on first entry to any lesson, read this first. It is the direction sign for the current task.

3.3 Then Read the Tutorial Body

The task entry tells you what to focus on first. The body explains why that focus is needed.

A lesson body usually does a few things:

• Explains where a concept or function sits in the learning flow.
• Gives simple examples.
• Clarifies common misunderstandings.
• Teaches key judgments you will use later.

When reading, do not memorize every sentence. Read with one leading question:

What is the key point this lesson asks me to understand first?

If you can catch that point, your later Q&A, practice, and diagnosis have a clear direction.

3.4 Use the Task Directory for Positioning and Switching

The task directory helps you confirm where you are and switch when needed.

Think of it as a course map:

Lesson 1: Where am I now?
Lesson 2: What comes next?
Lesson 3: If I need to review, where do I go?

It is useful, but do not rush to study the full course map immediately.

A natural use pattern:

• If you want to know how many lessons the course has, check the task directory.
• If you want to go back to a previous lesson, check the task directory.
• If you want to confirm your current lesson, check the task directory.

While learning the current lesson, you still read the entry and body first.

3.5 Keep Questions Around the Current Task

When something is unclear, use Q&A mode to clarify. After you have a first understanding, use Practice mode for flashcards. If you cannot explain, use Explain Back. If your reasons feel unstable, use Guided Questions. If you do not know the next step, use Diagnostic.

Use this principle:

Ask AI to stay on the current course and current task.

For example, if you are in Lesson 3, you can ask:

Why should I read the task entry first?
What is the difference between task directory and tutorial body?
What should I read first now?

These questions are all on the current task, so AI can stay aligned with what you are learning.

If you start with open-ended chat, it is easy to drift away from the current lesson. DeepDojo.AI’s advantage is placing AI back into the learning path.

3.6 This Lesson Is Just One Sequence

Do not try to memorize all interface details at once.

Just keep this sequence:

Read task entry first
Then read tutorial body
Clarify with Q&A mode when unclear
Use task directory when you need to locate or switch

The next lesson will focus on how to use Q&A mode to clarify understanding. For now, remember this: when you are confused, uncertain, or want to confirm understanding during learning, ask clearly before moving on.
