Course-Chat - Chat with your course materials - Gradient X

Just imagine: At 22:00, your learners will have a question about exam preparation. Instead of waiting for your answer, they open the Kurschat — and immediately get a well-founded explanation based on exactly the materials you've uploaded.

This is now possible with Learn With AI.

What Kurschat solves for you

Until now, it was time-consuming to provide learners with AI that is actually based on your lesson content. The Kurschat changes that: You upload your PDFs, presentations, and assignments — and the AI only answers on that basis.

In concrete terms, this means:

Learners receive explanations that match your lesson
Not generic ChatGPT answers, but content from your documents
Quotes and references show where the information comes from

What AI can do

Kurschat is not a general chatbot. He is focused on a specific course block and can:

Explain content — prepare complex concepts from your documents in an understandable way
Answer comprehension questions — even those who do not dare to face learners
Verify knowledge — through specific questions or exercises
Indicate sources — with references to the specific documents

How to set up Kurschat (5 minutes)

Create a course — e.g. “artificial intelligence”
Add course block — e.g. “Introduction to Artificial Intelligence”
1. A course block is a self-contained unit of your lesson
Uploading materials — PDFs, presentations, Word files (please note copyright)
Activate Kurschat — one click is enough
testing — via “Chat with course materials”
parts the link to the course with your learners via “Action” —> “Share”

💡 Tip: upload all files before You activate Kurschat. In this way, everything is synchronized in one step — which saves time.

Pro tip: Kurschat as a working tool for you

You can also use the Kurschat for yourself:

Set up a private course and use it as a project. Collect your materials, have summaries prepared, check content for updates or develop new tasks — all in dialogue with your own documents.

For teachers: full control

In the teacher view, you determine:

For which course blocks the chat is active
How the AI should behave (we have an optimized default prompt, but you can adjust it if needed)
Who has access (via classes and access keys)

Control access: With classes, you determine who gets access and when. Name, password, maximum number of users and validity period — everything can be set.

Traffic jams: Each file has a status that shows how far the synchronization with the AI has already progressed. The status is automatically queried every 10 minutes and is restarted if necessary. You can also update the status manually by clicking “Update Now.” You can find more information directly in the app.

Good to know: Limitations

Supported formats: PDF, Word, PowerPoint, text files
Important: Only text in PDFs is read. Images or text-as-image cannot be processed at this time.

For learners: Just get started

Learners see the activated course chat directly in the course block. You can click on the “Chat with course materials” button and:

Ask questions
Have content explained to you
Have summaries created
Check your knowledge

The chat shows which documents contain information. In this way, it remains transparent what is in the documents and what is not.

This is what the chat looks like for learners

Learners work directly with your course materials:

Transparency: Where does the answer come from?

The Kurschat shows which documents the information comes from. This allows learners to understand what statements relate to and you retain control over what is being conveyed.
