Illustrate: generate, check, approve or remove pictures
Use visual explanations while keeping control of errors and cost.
For: Student, Teacher, Centre Manager, Super Admin
Look for: Concept illustrations · Illustrate · Open prepared picture and example · Saved learning pictures
- Students in guided ICSE Class 6 maths can open Show me a picture → Open prepared picture and example. All 873 bundled worked examples have a prepared visual; the centre must have published the corresponding questions. These different-number examples are available without AI image generation or any AI allowance.
- Use the prepared picture first. If a different explanation is needed, expand Need a different AI picture? and request Illustrate under the existing permissions and limits. Independent checks do not expose worked examples.
- Student: in an active activity choose an illustration style and request an image when generation is enabled. Wait for generation and its separate AI correctness check.
- Return to the activity to see the saved picture/status. A failed or flagged check blocks display; pending teacher approval also keeps it hidden when that policy applies.
- After a sitting is finished, students can reopen a question and expand Saved learning pictures, then Show me a picture, when saved pictures exist and the question is still published and not removed. Existing checking and approval rules still apply. Viewing a saved picture does not generate another one; the Illustrate form is unavailable after the sitting closes.
- Managers set generation, image quality, centre/child budgets and image counts in AI & spending. Higher rendering quality is more expensive and does not guarantee mathematical correctness.
- Authorised staff open Concept illustrations to inspect the actual picture, check result and notes. Approve when permitted, request another check, withdraw an incorrect image, or delete its file while preserving the audit record.
- Default display is after a passed AI check. Staff can set the centre approval rule unless an administrator locks it. Assigned teachers may raise child counts only if allowed; a zero admin limit blocks new images.
- Saved illustrations can be reused within the centre without another generation charge. A queued recheck can use the separate preparation/recheck budget.
