StudyGen User Manual

Getting started

  • Sign in with Google or email and choose Teacher or Student. Your account type is fixed the first time you sign in.
  • Teachers get the Generator, Exams, Classes and Teacher mode. Students get My work.

Generating a lesson

  • Pick the year group (Year 1–13), subject, topic, presentation vibe and difficulty (Foundation to Oxbridge).
  • Choose a full pack or just a worksheet, mock test or assessment. SlideGen focuses on KS3, GCSE AQA/Edexcel/OCR and A-level, and also supports KS1 and KS2.
  • Slides include worked examples, answers you can reveal, teacher notes, real pictures from Wikimedia and line graphs for science.

Editing slides

  • Open the Edit tab. Active mode lets you type straight onto the slide and change bold, italic, underline, double underline, highlight, colours, text size and picture size.
  • Passive mode shows a tidy form for the title, bullets and notes.
  • Press ✨ next to any item to rewrite just that part with AI, with Undo. The Picture box swaps, searches or removes pictures and graphs.

School themes & Layer Studio

  • In Settings, upload your school PowerPoint or a screenshot. SlideGen copies colours, fonts, shapes, pictures and layout.
  • Layer Studio lets you tick which shapes and pictures to keep. 'Auto-pick with AI' chooses the reusable parts for you.

Exporting & presenting

  • Export as an editable PowerPoint (.pptx) or download the test as a PDF.
  • Present opens a clean projector window showing only the slide, while your laptop keeps notes, the next slide and live tips. Arrow keys or a clicker move both.

Exams, tests & worksheets

  • The Exams page builds full papers with mark schemes and calculation grids. Use 'Exam preparing for' to match a board, 11+, Oxbridge tests or UKMT.
  • Mock tests mark multiple-choice answers automatically. Worksheets have a mark scheme toggle.

Classes & results

  • Create a class to get a join code, then share it with pupils. Store folders and files per class.
  • The results graph shows mock tests in red, worksheets in green and assessments in blue for each pupil.
  • Set work through the Backpack with due dates.

Marking

  • Pupils can upload up to six photos of handwritten work. The marking desk shows the photos, answers and mark scheme.
  • AI marking reads handwriting and drafts marks and feedback; teachers can change anything before returning it.

Teacher mode

  • The microphone transcribes the lesson in your browser and suggests misconceptions and explanations.
  • The fair pupil picker chooses pupils who haven't spoken yet.

For students

  • Press 'Join class with code' on My work, see set work and due dates, revise with mock tests and worksheets, and open 'See feedback' to review marks.

Settings & account

  • Set default year, subject, vibe and difficulty, dark mode and large text.
  • Optionally add your own Gemini keys and save them to your account.
  • Delete your account in the Danger Zone by typing DELETE.
