Process Questions

Process Questions

Term explanation

Definition and meaning

Process questions ask participants to explain how something works, how a decision was made, or how a result was reached — rather than simply what the answer is. They focus on reasoning, methodology, and the steps taken to arrive at an outcome. In training, coaching, and facilitated workshops, process questions help participants reflect on their thinking and deepen their understanding. They are more cognitively demanding than recall questions and are effective for developing critical thinking and problem-solving skills.

LIZ AI answers process questions through automation. It handles the recurring tasks of updating, formatting, and distributing presentations — so teams can focus on the substantive questions, not the operational ones.

.ppsx file extension

A .ppsx file is a PowerPoint show file that opens directly in slideshow mode, skipping the editing interface. Unlike .pptx files, which open in the editor, a .ppsx starts the presentation immediately when double-clicked. This makes it ideal for distributing finalized presentations to audiences who only need to view the content. The .ppsx format replaced the older .pps format introduced in Office 2007.

Task Decomposition

Task decomposition is the process by which an AI agent breaks down a complex, high-level goal into a sequence of smaller, manageable subtasks. The agent identifies dependencies between steps, determines what tools or data each step requires, and decides which subtasks can run in parallel. Task decomposition is a fundamental capability of Agentic AI systems and is central to how an agent loop executes multi-step workflows reliably.

Adaptive Presentation

An adaptive presentation is a slide deck that automatically adjusts its content, structure, or length based on context — such as the intended audience, available time, or communication goal. Rather than maintaining separate versions of the same deck, adaptive presentations use AI to derive the right variant on demand. They are a practical application of AI-powered workflows in the presentation layer, and are closely related to the living presentation concept — combining dynamic content with audience-aware adaptation.

Learning on Demand

Learning on demand is an approach in which learners access educational content whenever they choose, rather than following a fixed schedule. Content is typically available as pre-recorded videos, e-courses, or interactive modules accessible 24/7. This format suits self-directed learners and organizations that need training available across different time zones. It contrasts with synchronous learning, where all participants engage at the same time.
