Google introduced the online learning tool for oppia.

Google today released the new open-source tool Oppia, through which everyone can create online interactive events to train others. Such lessons, which are called “surveys,” can co-create several people through a web interface; you do not even need to know programming to do this.



Here’s how Google itself describes Oppia:

Oppia teaches through the presentation of a mentor, a mentor who asks the learner questions. Depending on his answers, the teacher decides which question to ask next, what feedback to give, what can be repeated and whether to proceed to the next part. You can think of it as a smart feedback system that “teaches a person how to fish” and not just determines the right or wrong answers.


Google believes that online education can provide more than just video, audio or text. In training, feedback is the key factor, the company writes: “a person does not learn to play the piano, after watching many videos with the game of virtuosos”.

Google notes that Oppia does not just offer static content - the system collects data on how students work with it, and shows them to the survey author so that he can correct the flaws. For example, if the majority of students give the wrong answer to a specific question - it is too complicated or does not belong to the topic being covered - the author may have a new way of learning for him. Thus, the lessons are constantly improving.

Oppia is now offered as an open source project , but Google itself says that “Oppia is not a Google product,” so apparently its development will fall on the shoulders of enthusiasts.
