Join Packback and the Academic Commons to learn more about the newest educational technology available in Canvas. Packback harnesses artificial intelligence to coach learners engage in deeper, more meaningful writing with Packback Questions and in Packback Deep Dives.

Packback Questions flips the traditional discussions board on its end. Learners generate questions with some coaching and direction from an AI-powered coach that encourage more thoughtful and critical responses from their peers.

Deep Dives offer real-time feedback on writing mechanics, quality of sources and depth of response before learners submit a writing assignment. The AI-generated feedback allows faculty to focus on content rather than mechanics which speeds up the grading process.

Watch the video for more about how Packback Questions and Packback DeepDive works.
