AI viva (beta): meet the virtual teachers and make your own for your class
Meet the ready virtual teachers that run an AI viva, then make one of your own with a name, a teaching style and a way of talking.
Every screen in the films is the real product, shown on a demo school made for them.
In an AI viva, a student answers spoken questions out loud instead of writing them down. The questions are put by a virtual teacher: the AI, given a name and a way of teaching. Apar AI LMS comes with a few ready ones, and you can make your own so the viva talks to your students the way you would. The AI viva is currently in beta.
This film shows where the virtual teachers are kept under Tests, makes a new one called Kavya in the Storyteller style, gives it a starting text for how it talks, and then switches its style to Patient.
Step by step
Open Tests, then Viva
In the menu on the left, press Tests, then Viva. This is where vivas live. The page sums the viva up in one line: spoken questions, asked and marked by AI.

Press New virtual teacher. Give it a name (the film uses Kavya) and pick how it teaches. The film picks Storyteller, which explains through stories and real-life examples. The list also has styles such as Patient, Challenging, Direct and Exam focused.

Press Write one for me. The box fills with a starting text based on the style you picked. Read it and change anything that does not sound like you, because the AI follows this text in every viva this teacher runs.

Press Make the teacher. Kavya now sits in the list next to the ready teachers.
Watch from 0:41Change a teacher you made
Open the menu on your teacher's card and press Edit. The film changes the style to Patient and presses Save changes. Only the teachers you made have this menu; the ready ones stay as they are.

Good to know
Currently in beta
The AI viva is a beta feature. This film only makes and edits a virtual teacher: no viva is set and no student answers anything in it.
Write one for me is a draft
The starting text comes from the style you picked. Treat it as a first draft and edit it into your own words; the box is optional.
What was real in the film
Everything was filmed on a demo school with its demo teacher. Kavya was made for the film and deleted after it. The ready teachers are the ones the product comes with.
Questions
