Remember: What are the primary inputs for photosynthesis?
Understand: Explain in your own words the role of chlorophyll in capturing sunlight.
Apply: How would a lack of carbon dioxide affect a plant's ability to produce glucose?
Analyze: Compare and contrast the light-dependent and light-independent reactions.
Evaluate: Predict the consequences for an ecosystem if the light-independent reactions were inhibited.
Tips to get higher-quality results
Ensure PDF Clarity: Use high-resolution PDFs where text is selectable rather than blurry image scans for the best accuracy.
Remove Junk Pages: Delete the Table of Contents, Index, or Bibliography pages before uploading to keep the AI focused on core content.
Provide Context: Use the AI chat to tell the system your current grade level or the specific exam you are preparing for.
Iterate: If a set of questions is too easy, ask the AI to increase the cognitive depth using Bloom's 'Evaluate' level.
Troubleshooting
Problem: Scanned PDF text Choice → Fix: Ensure the file is not password protected and use high-contrast scans.
Problem: Questions are too basic → Fix: Use the 'Refine' prompt to specifically request 'Higher-Order Thinking' questions.
Problem: PDF is too long → Fix: Use the chapter selection tool to process the document in smaller modules.
Problem: Output is generic → Fix: Provide a specific focus topic in the settings before generating the quiz.
