🤖 Choose the Right AI Generation Mode for My Content

Rethink or Preserve: two AI generation modes to transform your content into e-learning. This guide helps you choose based on the nature of your source document.

Written by Pauline Bouin

⏱️ The Essentials in 3 Minutes

Rethink restructures your content: ideal for raw notes, dense PowerPoints, or texts with no pedagogical logic.
Preserve stays faithful to your document: ideal for structured expert content, or sensitive topics (legal, compliance, safety).
• In Preserve mode, the "word for word" option guarantees total fidelity to the source text, with no rephrasing.
• Both modes are available at the project and module level.


🧠 Understanding the Importance of Choosing a Generation Mode

Transforming a document into e-learning is not just a matter of importing a file and letting the AI do the rest. The result depends directly on the nature of the source content and the pedagogical intent.

A document structured by a legal expert does not call for the same treatment as a set of meeting notes. Choosing the wrong mode risks either misrepresenting content that needed to stay precise, or delivering an unengaging module for lack of restructuring.

The choice of generation mode is therefore the first pedagogical decision to make before launching a generation.


🔍 "Rethink the Content" Mode

This mode uses the information from your source document while freely restructuring it. The meaning is respected, but the wording may change.

When to use it:

  • Unstructured document: dense PowerPoint, raw notes, text with no pedagogical logic.

  • You want the AI to bring out rich content that is still "in the rough".

What it generates: The AI detects key concepts, ranks them, and synthesizes them. You choose the number of granules you want and the split between information and exercise granules.

Strengths: creative and engaging results, intelligent restructuring, highlighting of essential information.


🔍 "Preserve the Content" Mode

This mode slightly rephrases the source content and adds pedagogical complements (definitions, exercises, memo sheets), while staying very close to the original text.

When to use it:

  • Document structured by experts, whose order and precision must be respected.

  • Specific or sensitive topic: legal, compliance, safety.

What it generates: The structure faithfully reflects the document's organization. The number of granules is determined automatically by the AI, with more informational granules than exercises.

Strengths: fidelity to the source, easy comparison with the original document, preserved structure.

"Word for word" option By checking this option in Preserve mode, no rephrasing is applied. The source content is transposed as-is. Reserved for topics where fidelity to the text is non-negotiable.

In summary:

  • Rethink ➡️ transform, clarify, reorganize.

  • Preserve ➡️ respect, retain, ensure reliability.

This choice is essential to obtain a Didask module that meets your pedagogical objectives while respecting the nature of your source document.
