Study Mode in ChatGPT is designed to help you learn more effectively by structuring your interaction as an active learning session. It works like a smart tutor who asks, prompts, quizzes, and adapts to your learning pace and style.
Here’s how to use it effectively:
✅ 1. Activate Study Mode
You don't need to press a button — just tell ChatGPT what you want:
“Let’s enter study mode. I want to learn [topic].”
Example:
“Let’s enter study mode. I want to learn about neural networks in machine learning.”
✅ 2. Choose Your Learning Style
You can ask for different formats:
-
Flashcards
-
Mini-lectures
-
Quizzes with feedback
-
Case studies
-
Socratic Q&A (ChatGPT asks you questions)
Example:
“Use Socratic method to teach me Bayesian inference.”
“Give me flashcards on carbon pricing policies.”
“Explain using Feynman technique.”
✅ 3. Set Your Level
Tell ChatGPT what level you're at so it can adapt:
“I’m a beginner in econometrics.”
“I know the basics of Python, teach me intermediate data analysis.”
✅ 4. Interact Actively
Study Mode works best when you respond. Don’t just read — engage:
-
Answer the questions it gives
-
Ask follow-ups
-
Request harder examples or simpler explanations
✅ 5. Track Progress (Optional)
You can ask:
“Test me on what I’ve learned so far.”
“Summarize what we’ve covered.”
“What should I study next?”
✅ 6. Use Multimodal Tools
If you're learning code, data, or diagrams, say:
“Show me a diagram of a convolutional neural network.”
“Create a Python script for regression analysis and quiz me on it.”
Example Study Mode Prompt
“Study mode: Teach me time series analysis using the Socratic method. I’m a beginner in econometrics, but I know basic statistics. Include quizzes every 10 minutes.”
Would you like me to demonstrate a study session now on a topic of your choice?
