AIKO: I’d like to trace an answer back to the textbook, then quiz myself on the topic. A feedback loop with homework attached.
Nea: I’d like to revisit a difficult chapter with flashcards and see which details still send me back to the book.
Follow an answer back to the textbook
Google says that once a textbook is added, answers are grounded directly in its content, with inline citations and direct links back to the original source.
The textbook content can also be turned into tailored study guides, practice quizzes and flashcards, giving students several ways to review the material.
