How do I add and edit topics?

Adding and editing topics in Learntime is straightforward. Here's a guide on how to input and modify your study content:

Adding a New Topic

1. Select the "+ New topic" button in the left sidebar.
2. Enter a name for your new topic when prompted by the Mentor.

Tips for Naming Topics:

• Choose clear, descriptive names for your topics.
• Consider using a consistent naming convention for related topics.
• Topics are automatically organized in the sidebar based on their review schedule.

Adding Content to Topics

You can add content to your topics in three ways:

1. Manual Input

• Type or paste your content directly into the chat interface when prompted by the Mentor.
• Use clear, concise language and structure your content for easy review.
• A study sheet typically includes 10 to 30 key facts, each with a few important details. The content and depth may vary based on the topic's complexity and your needs.

2. File Upload

• Select the file upload icon (if available) to add documents or images as source material.
• Drag and drop your files into the chat interface.
• Supported file types may include .txt, .jpg, and .png (.pdf, .doc, coming soon).

3. AI-Generated Content

• Ask the Mentor to generate study materials on your topic.
• Provide a clear, detailed request for the kind of content you need.
• Review and edit the AI-generated content to ensure it meets your learning needs.

Editing Existing Topics

Go to a topic and select "Show study sheet" then "Edit Topic". To edit a topic name:

1. Select the topic name in the sidebar.
2. Look for and select the "Edit topic" button (a paper + pencil icon) near the topic name to make changes to the topic name.
3. Select "Save" to save the changes.

To delete a topic:

1. Select the topic name in the sidebar.
2. Look for a delete or trash can icon near the topic name.
3. Confirm the deletion when prompted.

Best Practices

• After creating or editing a topic, it's recommended to start a recall review immediately to reinforce your learning.
• Regularly review and update your topics to ensure the content remains relevant and accurate.
• Use the AI Mentor's assistance to refine and expand your topic content over time.
• Remember that an effective study sheet typically contains 10 to 30 key facts. Adjust the amount of content based on the complexity of your topic and your personal learning goals.

By effectively managing your topics, you'll create a rich, personalized learning resource that grows and evolves with your knowledge.
