Learning platform Quizlet has added a new Learning Assistant to its AI-powered study tools, that uses machine learning to provide personalized study sessions, progress insights and smart grading for students. By taking into account a student's learning objectives and existing knowledge, the Learning Assistant creates "study experiences that adapt to each learner for better recall and deeper understanding," according to the company.

Features of the tool include:

Personalized study paths, designed to "adapt to the challenge level of each individual and predict the most efficient starting place for each study session";
Smart grading, which uses natural language processing to evaluate students' written answers based on their meaning rather than exact words used; and
A progress dashboard, providing students with a view of their study activity and areas to improve.

The Learning Assistant is available to all Quizlet Plus subscribers. For more information, visit the Quizlet site.
