# Add a new lesson

You can add new lessons to any course, whether it was generated from a document or created from scratch. There are two ways to add lessons: 

* **From document:** the lesson is generated by AI based on a selected chapter from the uploaded file. 
* **From scratch:** the lesson is manually created and customized by the user 

{% hint style="warning" %}

* If your course was **generated by AI** from a document, you can choose **both** **options** (from document and from scratch) 
* If your course was **created from scratch** (i.e., without uploading a document), you can **only add lessons from scratch**.
