Harness the Power of AI for Learning

What is AI?

Artificial intelligence (AI) in a nutshell is machines or systems performing tasks that normally require human intelligence, to enhance processes and increase efficiency. AI isn’t new, some of us have been using it in our day-to-day lives for over a decade – Apple’s AI (Siri) was launched with the iPhone 4s in 2011.

AI-powered learning

Larmer Brown is a partner of Zensai, the leading Human Success platform built for Microsoft 365. Zensai leverages the power of AI for learning management; making it easy, intuitive and accessible. In this article, we will share some of the benefits of the AI features in Learn365, Zensai’s AI-powered learning management system (LMS).

Use of AI for Learning and Development

AI is transforming the way we learn, work and live, helping organisations create more engaging, personalised and effective learning experiences that align with specific needs and objectives. The efficiency gains, personalised learning experiences and data-driven insights AI brings are invaluable to an organisation. Whether you want to upskill your employees, improve compliance, or foster a culture of continuous learning, AI can support you in achieving your goals.

There are many ways of using AI for learning and development, including:

  • Data-driven insights: AI can analyse large amounts of data to provide actionable insights. It can be used to identify skills gaps, predict training needs and highlight areas where employees can excel, ensuring that learning initiatives are targeted and effective.
  • Learning assistance: AI can provide learners with personalised and adaptive learning experiences, based on their preferences, goals, prior knowledge, skills and performance. It can also provide feedback, guidance and support to learners throughout their learning journey.
  • Personalised learning paths: AI can tailor learning paths based on the individual needs and abilities of each learner. It can also create customised learning materials and assessments that match the learner’s level of understanding, learning style and interests.
  • Automating content creation: AI can assist in generating instructional content, including quizzes, assessments and interactive elements. This reduces the burden on instructional designers and helps develop content more efficiently.

Benefits of AI features in Learn365

Learn365 is the only AI-powered learning platform that integrates seamlessly with Microsoft 365, allowing you to access and manage your learning from Microsoft Teams, SharePoint, Viva Learning and Outlook. With Learn365, you can create, assign, track and report on courses, quizzes, learning paths, and more, all within your familiar Microsoft environment.

Learn365 uses advanced AI tools to enhance learning experience and streamline course admin. Here are some of the benefits of Learn365’s AI features:

  • Create better courses, faster: With AI-assisted course building, you can turn documents and videos into engaging courses with modules, quizzes, and more, all in a matter of seconds. You can also adjust the content as you like and publish the training with ease.

    With the AI-powered course creation tool for quizzes, you can input a topic, add a file, insert text, or upload a video into the quiz editor for automatic question generation based on the provided content. Admins can pre-determine the quiz layout, such as specifying the passing score, selecting any variety of multiple choice, multiple answer, true/false, and matching questions. AI will then generate the quiz with a title, description and questions with default settings.
  • Customise learning paths: Thanks to AI recommendations, learners can discover courses that help them succeed in their career. They can ask for course suggestions and get tailored proposals based on their interests, skill level, learning style, or past courses taken.
  • Gain valuable insights: Seamlessly track learner progress and transform your data into vibrant, comprehensible visuals with Microsoft Power BI, bolstered by AI. You can also analyse your data to improve learner experience or ensure that employees are compliant with the most recent rules and regulations.
  • Learn in the flow of work: With the AI-powered chatbot, learners can interact with training in a more natural and conversational way. They can ask questions, get feedback and find relevant training within course catalogs, all within the Chat tab in Teams.

    The chatbot in Learn365 is built on the Large Language Model (LLM) and uses a natural language processing (NLP) model enabling users to interact with training in a more natural and intuitive way. Instead of using specific commands or prompts in the chat, users can simply enter their requests in everyday language and the chatbot will understand it. This fluid communication between the user and the chatbot results in more natural and conversational interactions, and a faster and better learning experience.
