Tip #1: Unit Guide Summaries to Save Time

Lectures and readings piling up? Trust me, we’ve all been there. Instead of spending hours making sense of what you’ve learned, use Penseum to create concise Unit Guide Summaries that’ll have you mastering concepts faster than you thought possible.

Pro Tip:

  • Summaries are a game-changer when prepping for midterms or finals. Use them to create mini-recaps after each class to stay ahead all semester.

Tip #2: Questions for Unlimited Practice

How do you know you’ve really understood something? By answering questions! And not just any questions—ones that challenge your critical thinking, like essay prompts or debates. That’s where Penseum shines. Upload your Social Sciences materials, and we’ll generate questions that push you to think deeper, whether it’s analyzing historical events, discussing sociological theories, or arguing political ideologies. Perfect for both exam prep and getting that A on your essay.

  • Set aside 15 minutes at the end of each study session to run through questions. It’s a quick way to check if you’ve truly mastered the material.
  • If you need more information on the topic hit the ‘Explain This’ button to get more context.
