“The most helpful aspect of the AI Tool is its ability to provide instant, step-by-step explanations tailored to each student’s learning needs. By offering real-time feedback and breaking down complex concepts into simpler terms, it makes learning more accessible and efficient. I believe it will help students by presenting different approaches to problem-solving, which may differ from what they’ve been traditionally taught. Additionally, it can handle redundant questions, allowing students to reinforce their understanding without frustration. It helped by breaking down steps further and not assuming I would automatically understand everything right away. This made it easier to follow along and grasp difficult concepts at my own pace.”
Terrell B. from Mississippi Valley State University
“AI Tutor supports students by providing instant help and explanations. If you do not understand a certain part, you can ask AI Tutor to explain more until you understand. It will allow students to grasp the concepts, making it simpler to understand complex topics.”
Lilian S. from Oklahoma City Community College
“I believe the best feature of the Hawkes AI is the suggested questions section. When a person is lost in a problem and may not know what or how to ask a question, the suggested questions tab is there to help. I believe that it made learning more engaging because it gave me direct feedback on questions I had on [math] problems. It helped clarify questions by showing me the steps to solve them.”
Trenton J. from Prairie View A&M University
“Hawkes’ AI Tutor is fairly unique in that it allows students to receive personalized step-by-step help based on specific questions they articulate themselves. I also appreciate that it draws strictly from content found within Hawkes Learning rather than presenting potentially faulty information from the wider internet. It encourages students to engage with the learning process, ensuring that they understand the material. Whereas many supplemental resources take a generalized approach to instruction, the Hawkes AI tool is designed to adjust according to each student’s needs so that they receive the most effective help for their learning style. It also provides an alternative to other AI platforms whose use of the internet often leads to inaccuracies.”
Ada B. from Guilford College
“Overall, it’s easy to use and very helpful. It makes studying faster and less confusing. It helps students understand tricky topics right away. It makes learning more interesting by giving quick feedback. Fast answers keep students focused and motivated.”
Vatsal B. from University of North Carolina – Charlotte
“I feel the most helpful aspect of the AI tool is the fact that I can type in any question that I have, or I can use the ‘suggested questions’ options that are available. I would describe my overall experience as beneficial in helping me learn why problems are solved the way they are instead of just mindlessly trying to find the answer. It also helped clarify difficult concepts by putting these problems into simple wording that anyone can understand and apply to their work. I would say it made [learning] more engaging because, with just a click of a button, I can get an in-depth answer to any question I may have.”
John S. from University of Mississippi
“I was surprised at how clear and helpful the explanations were. Instead of searching online for a long time, I could just ask a question and get a direct, simple answer. It saves time, makes learning easier, and helps when I get stuck on something. It’s like having a tutor available 24/7. It makes learning more interactive. Instead of just reading from a textbook, I can ask questions, get examples, and see different explanations until I fully understand a topic.”
Inam O. from University of Virginia’s College at Wise
