🎓 Learner guide: activity types on EdBuild AI

Written by Benjamin Sitbon

🎓 8 types of learning activities

An EdBuild AI course is made up of chapters, which are themselves divided into topics, and each topic contains one or more activities. Here are the 8 types of activities you may come across as a learner.


🎬 Video

  • An AI-generated video presents the topic through a virtual avatar with a synthetic voice

  • You can pause, rewind, or turn on subtitles from the player

  • The activity is marked as completed once you have watched the video all the way through


🎙️ Audio podcast

  • An AI-generated audio podcast presents the course introduction or a topic, either as a conversation between two speakers or as single-voice narration

  • Listen directly in the player: you can pause and rewind at any time

  • The activity is marked as completed once you have listened to the podcast all the way through


🔘 Single-choice quiz

  • A question with several possible answers, of which only one is correct

  • Click the answer you think is right, then submit

  • You immediately see whether you were right or wrong, along with an explanation


☑️ Multiple-choice quiz

  • Same as the single-choice quiz, but several answers can be correct

  • Check every answer you think is right, then submit

  • Your score is based on the number of correct answers you checked and incorrect ones you avoided


📚 Glossary

  • A list of key terms with their definitions

  • Click each term to reveal its definition

  • The activity is completed once you have viewed every term


🃏 Flashcards

  • Two-sided memory cards: a question or definition on the front, the answer on the back

  • Think of the answer, then click to flip the card and check

  • Ideal for memorizing concepts or vocabulary


✏️ Fill in the blanks

  • A text with missing words to complete

  • Type the missing word in each field (strict or flexible checking, depending on the course)

  • Submit at the end to see your score


🧩 Drag and drop

  • Match labels to their targets by dragging them with the mouse (or with your finger on mobile)

  • Used to pair up concepts, sort items into categories, or put a sequence in order

  • Submit at the end to see your score


📊 Tracking your progress

  • Your time spent is counted automatically on every activity

  • The course progress bar updates as you complete activities

  • Your single-choice and multiple-choice quiz results are saved and visible on your dashboard


📄 What happens next?

Once you have finished the course, you can download your course completion certificate from your learner area, along with an attendance certificate detailing the time spent on each activity.
