Description

The Image Generation tool lets you create custom images on demand—simply describe what you want in the mentorAI chat, and the AI returns a picture in seconds. It’s perfect for visualizing ideas, illustrating projects, or adding graphics to assignments without leaving the learning environment.


Target Audience

Student


Features

Prompt‑Based Creation

Type a natural‑language description (e.g.,

“Generate an image of a happy puppy”
) and mentorAI produces a matching image.

Instant In‑Chat Display

Generated images appear directly below the AI’s response—no downloads or external sites required.

Tool‑Toggle Status

The Image Generation tool can be switched on or off by instructors; students can verify it’s enabled at a glance.

Iterative Refinement

If the first result isn’t perfect, you can send follow‑up prompts (e.g.,

“Make the background blue”
) and mentorAI will adjust the image.


How to Use (step by step)

Confirm the Tool Is On

In your mentor’s sidebar, ensure Image Generation is toggled On.
If it’s off, contact your instructor to enable it.

Describe the Image

Click the lower prompt box and type your request, such as:

Generate an image of a happy puppy.

Send the Prompt

Press Send (or hit Enter).

View the Output

mentorAI quickly creates and displays the image right in the chat window.

Refine if Needed

Add follow‑up instructions (e.g.,

“Add a ball in the puppy’s mouth”
) to generate a new version.


Pedagogical Use Cases

Concept Illustration

Generate diagrams or visuals to accompany explanations—e.g.,

“Create a labeled diagram of the water cycle.”

Creative Writing Support

Produce scene images that match a story excerpt, helping visualize narrative settings or characters.

Project Prototyping

Mock up design ideas for engineering, architecture, or art projects without specialized software.

Language Learning

Ask for images matching vocabulary words (e.g.,

“Show a bustling marketplace”
) to reinforce word meanings.

Presentation Enhancements

Quickly create unique graphics for slides, posters, or reports when stock images don’t fit the topic.


Whenever you need a new visual, just write a clear description and let mentorAI render it for you—fast, simple, and right inside the chat.
