Quizzes in Kortext IQ

We’re introducing Quizzes, a new Kortext IQ feature that enables students to create personalised quizzes from their AI-assigned books and My files. Students can save quizzes, revisit them throughout the term, and receive instant feedback linking back to the source material, helping to reinforce learning through active recall.

 

 

New data sources for Kortext IQ

Kortext IQ now supports VLE pages, lecturer-uploaded files and institution-approved URLs as reference sources, helping deliver more accurate, course-specific responses. In addition, with the latest addition of D2L and Blackboard, Kortext IQ now integrates with the four major VLEs: Canvas, Moodle, D2L and Blackboard.

A new floating action button in Canvas gives students and instructors instant access to Kortext IQ from anywhere in the VLE. By removing extra navigation steps, the update makes AI support more visible, accessible and convenient to use.
