Extract Text from Images and Transform into a Statement-Identification & Summary Task

Do you have textbooks, documents, or handouts in image format and want to make them more engaging for your students? With to-teach.ai's OCR feature, you can auto-extract the text from images and convert it into a statement-based exercise, complete with summary tasks. This interactive approach helps students identify correct statements, sharpen their critical thinking, and encapsulate key ideas in a concise summary.

Why Use a Statement-Identification Exercise with Summaries?

• Effective Comprehension
  
  By having students confirm or refute statements drawn directly from the extracted text, you encourage deeper reading comprehension.

• Improved Critical Thinking
  
  Asking learners to identify correct vs. incorrect statements pushes them to evaluate content beyond surface-level understanding.

• Summaries that Solidify Knowledge
  
  Summaries help students synthesize the material, ensuring they can articulate the main points effectively.

• Versatility Across Subjects
  
  Whether it’s history, language arts, or science, extracting text from images to create statement exercises works for all academic topics.

• Time-Saving Automation
  
  to-teach.ai’s built-in OCR automatically extracts text, saving you hours of manual data entry, so you can instead focus on teaching strategy.
