Pearson Launches New AI-Powered Study Tools
Digital learning company Pearson has introduced innovative AI-powered tools designed to offer personalized assistance to students directly within their e-textbooks or study platforms. These tools are accessible through Pearson+ Channels, a part of the company’s e-textbook subscription service.
What Are the New AI Tools?
- Personalized Study and Exam Prep: Students can upload their syllabus to generate an AI-driven custom learning plan aligned with their course schedule.
- Interactive Video Learning: A new “ask a question” feature allows students to pause a video and interact with a chatbot for immediate answers.
- Expanded AI Study Tools: A generative AI tutor offers problem-solving steps, unique video content, practice questions, and more.
How Do These Tools Enhance Learning?
These new capabilities enhance Pearson’s existing AI study tools, such as those in MyLab and Mastering platforms, which offer personalized guidance, content summarization, and explanations for complex concepts. Recently, instructor AI tools were added to select titles to help create assignments tailored to student needs.
“College students who are using AI tools to help them understand complex topics are getting better grades,” said Pearson Chief Product Officer Tony Prentice. “AI’s role in education is growing, and it’s encouraging to see more students and faculty embrace the benefits of AI to unlock new ways to personalize learning and teaching.”
