OpenAI Launches ‘Study Mode’ in ChatGPT for Students

New feature helps learners understand step-by-step—now available to free users too

OpenAI has introduced a new feature called “Study Mode” in ChatGPT, designed to support students in learning concepts step-by-step instead of simply receiving direct answers. The feature is available to both free and paid users, making it widely accessible to learners worldwide.

As part of its mission to enhance the educational value of AI, OpenAI developed Study Mode to encourage critical thinking and deeper understanding, helping students engage in the learning process rather than just copying answers.

Unlike traditional responses, Study Mode guides students through questions like a personal tutor, offering hints, asking follow-up questions, and helping them explore solutions gradually. This interactive and reflective learning method fosters better comprehension and long-term retention.

According to OpenAI, the feature is now available across all tiers of ChatGPT—including free, Plus, Pro, and Team plans—making it an important step toward democratizing AI-powered education.

The launch of this feature comes amid growing concerns from educators who feared that tools like ChatGPT might discourage independent thinking and impact the way humans use language, as suggested by recent research. Study Mode directly addresses this concern by offering a more meaningful and collaborative learning experience.

How to Use Study Mode in ChatGPT:

  1. Log into your ChatGPT account.

  2. Open any chat window and click on the “Tools menu”.

  3. Select “Study Mode” or “Study & Learn”.

  4. Type your question and start learning interactively—this time with guidance, not just answers.

Whether you’re stuck on a math problem, exploring a science concept, or preparing for exams, Study Mode transforms ChatGPT into a thoughtful study companion, guiding students like a real teacher would.
