Agent Loop

Agent Loop

Term explanation

Definition and meaning

The agent loop is the core operating cycle of an autonomous AI agent. It runs continuously through four phases: Perception (gathering information), Reasoning (planning the next step), Action (executing — such as calling a tool or generating content), and Observation (evaluating the result). The loop repeats until the task is complete or the agent requires human input. This is the mechanism behind Agentic AI systems — it is what allows agents to handle complex, multi-step tasks that a single prompt-and-response model could not.

LIZ AI's core runs on an agent loop: it continuously perceives changes in your connected data systems, plans the appropriate presentation updates, executes them in PowerPoint, and verifies the result — automatically and repeatedly.

Classroom Communication System (CCS)

A classroom communication system is a technology platform that enables real-time two-way interaction between instructor and students during a class or presentation. It typically supports live polls, Q&A, quizzes, and feedback tools accessible via student devices. By facilitating ongoing dialogue rather than one-way delivery, classroom communication systems increase participation, surface misunderstandings early, and create a more dynamic learning environment for both in-person and hybrid settings.

Prompt Engineering

Prompt engineering is the practice of crafting and refining the instructions given to an AI system in order to produce better, more accurate, or more useful outputs. A well-engineered prompt provides clear context, specifies the desired format, and sets constraints that guide the model toward the intended result. In the context of presentation tools, prompt engineering determines how effectively a user can instruct an AI to generate the right slide structure, tone, and content — making it a practical skill for anyone working with generative AI tools.

Flipped Classroom

Flipped Classroom means that students work out the subject matter themselves at home through tasks such as reading, videos, etc. Interactive learning activities and exercises then take place in class.

Virtual Audience

A virtual audience consist of people who join an event / a meeting / a presentation via an electronic device (computer or smartphone) over the Internet. Each member may be located in a different place while an event takes place. Virtual audiences are becoming increasingly important as the amount of events held online is rising.
