The Educator Agent is your AI-powered helper inside Mindjoy. It can answer questions about your students, create lessons, pathways, tutors, and classrooms, assign content, and help you manage your teaching workflow - all through a simple conversation.
How to access the Educator Agent
Click Agent in the left-hand sidebar to open the Educator Agent.
You can also start a new conversation from the home page using one of the suggested prompts.
What the Educator Agent can do
The Educator Agent helps with two broad categories of tasks:
Get information
Student progress - Ask how your class is doing, who needs help, or get details on a specific student's submissions and scores.
Assignment insights - View completion rates, average scores, and identify struggling students for any assignment.
Classroom overview - See all students, assigned pathways, and tutors for a classroom at a glance.
Platform help - Ask how to do something on Mindjoy and get answers from the help documentation.
Take action
Create lessons - Describe what you need or upload a PDF, and the Educator Agent builds a fully structured lesson with content blocks and auto-marked questions.
Create pathways - Set up a new pathway (a sequence of lessons) for a subject or unit.
Create tutors - Build AI tutors for your students: study buddies, Educator Agents, or simulation characters like a historical figure or a patient to diagnose.
Create classrooms - Set up new classrooms for groups of students.
Assign content - Assign pathways to classrooms with optional start and due dates, or assign tutors to classrooms or individual lessons.
Update content - Modify tutor settings, update assignment dates, and more.
Generate images - Create visual explanations on a whiteboard to help illustrate concepts.
How conversations work
Just type what you need in plain language. The Educator Agent understands context and will guide you through multi-step workflows one question at a time.
For example, if you say "Help me create homework for my Grade 9 chemistry class," the Educator Agent will:
Ask if you have a PDF to upload or want to generate from scratch
Ask which pathway to add the lesson to (or offer to create a new one)
Create the lesson
Offer to assign it to your classroom
When the Educator Agent needs you to choose between options, it presents clickable buttons rather than asking you to type. Just tap your choice to continue.
@ Mentions
Type @ in the chat input to mention a specific classroom, pathway, or lesson. This gives the Educator Agent direct context about what you're referring to, so you don't have to describe it - just mention it.
For example: "Assign @Fractions Unit to @Maths 101" immediately tells the Educator Agent exactly which pathway and classroom you mean.
Click on the item you want to reference. It appears as a highlighted tag in your message.
File uploads
You can upload PDFs, images, and other files directly in the chat. When creating a lesson, uploading your existing materials (lesson notes, slides, past papers, textbook chapters) produces significantly better results because the Educator Agent preserves your content, structure, and diagrams.
Voice mode
The Educator Agent supports voice mode for hands-free interaction. In voice mode, you can ask questions and retrieve information - student progress, classroom details, assignment insights, and platform help.
Creating or modifying content (lessons, tutors, pathways, classrooms, and assignments) is available in text mode only.
Action feedback
When the Educator Agent takes an action - like searching for pathways or looking up student progress - you'll see a visual indicator showing what it's doing. Once complete, it shows the result and continues the conversation.
