Starting a Chat Tutor
Open your class → Assessments & Chat Tutors → Chat Tutor and click the activity.
Check the Learning Objectives tab to see what the conversation will cover, then click Start Chat.
Choose Voice mode (talk to Kai out loud and hear responses) or Text mode (type your answers). You can switch at any time during the session.
Prefer to watch? See the quick tutorial Student View of Chat Activity in the Knowt Teacher Community.
During the chat
Kai starts the conversation and asks you guiding questions. The bar at the top shows which objective you're working on and how many are left. Click Speak on any of Kai's messages to hear it read aloud, or Switch to Voice to talk instead of type.
When you've finished, click Submit Session at the top right. Kai grades the chat in a few seconds.
Your results
You'll see your score, which numbered objectives you completed, and a summary of your Strengths, Areas of Improvement and Follow-Up, alongside your full conversation. If your teacher allowed more attempts, click Retry Chat Session to try again.
Note: All Chat Tutor conversations are monitored. Your teacher can read the transcript, and Knowt will alert them if anything unsafe or inappropriate comes up.
If you have any more questions, please feel free to reach out to our team by clicking Help in the bottom-left corner of Knowt and choosing Contact Support.
