Working with Instruction Verbs

Do you want to quickly turn text from images into practical exercises where students learn to use, understand, and apply instruction verbs? With to-teach.ai, you can upload or capture images containing text, let our OCR (Optical Character Recognition) extract that text, and then transform it into an instructional verbs exercise. This process makes learning new terms and instructions more hands-on and memorable.

Why Focus on Instruction Verbs?

• Strengthen Comprehension
  
  Students gain a deeper understanding of directions by breaking down verbs like 'analyze,' 'justify,' or 'compare.'

• Promote Consistency
  
  Utilizing a consistent set of instruction verbs across different tasks helps learners achieve uniform progress in following directions.

• Interactive Application
  
  Generating questions and sample solutions based on these verbs enables immediate practice.

• Ideal for All Text Sources
  
  Whether it’s a scanned worksheet, a textbook snippet you photographed, or a poster, extracting text using OCR eliminates manual copy-paste work.
