How to create a lesson from a video using AI

Open this area in SubSchool

• Courses
• AI tasks

The video workflow transcribes a supported file and creates an editable lesson. The source video remains the authority: correct transcription and generated claims before publishing.

Step 1. Open the course

Click Courses and open the course that should receive the lesson.

Step 2. Open Lessons

From the course overview open Lessons.

Step 3. Choose the destination module

Create a module first if needed, then use the Create lesson button on the correct module. The selected module controls where the generated lesson is placed.

Step 4. Choose Video lesson AI

Open the lesson menu and click Video lesson AI.

Step 5. Configure generation

Upload one supported video file. Confirm the module. Enable Generate homework only when you want AI to create an exercise set immediately; choose the displayed volume to control its size. The controls lock after submission until processing finishes, so check the file and module first.

Step 6. Submit and check quick progress

Click Create lesson once. The task continues in the background. Open the task/bell menu in the header from any teacher page. If email notifications are enabled, SubSchool also sends a completion or failure email.

Step 7. Use the full AI task history

Open AI tasks to see queue, transcription, generation progress, timestamps, and errors. Do not upload the same video again while the existing task is still running.

Step 8. Review the generated lesson

Open the result and compare the transcript with the video. Fix names, numbers, terminology, headings, and unsupported conclusions. Check the video player, PDF or article text, and every generated homework answer before saving and previewing the student view.
