Déjà served as an educational AI; a "teacher" for the SPARTAN-II training program. She instructed the [[SPARTAN-II Program|SPARTAN-II supersoldiers]] in their first stages of training at [[Reach Naval Academy]] and other facilities on [[Reach]]. Her counterpart, [[Chief Petty Officer]] [[Franklin Mendez]], gave the Spartans rigorous physical training. This, along with Doctor [[Catherine Halsey]]'s [[SPARTAN-II augmentation procedures|physical augmentations]] and eventually [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor|MJOLNIR armor]], made the Spartans more intelligent, stronger, and faster than their non-augmented counterparts.<ref>''Halo: The Fall of Reach''</ref> | Déjà served as an educational AI; a "teacher" for the SPARTAN-II training program.

Déjà's lessons were the part of the Spartans' training program meant to teach them to employ strategic thinking. She also educated them in history, mathematics, and presumably other fields. In one of her first lessons, she taught the Spartan-IIs about the famous [[Wikipedia:Battle of Thermopylae|Battle of Thermopylae]], where 300 [[Sparta]]ns made a stand against a quarter of a million Persians.<ref>'''Halo: The Fall of Reach''', ''page 47''</ref> Another lesson was about [[seven]] [[list of animals|wolves]] taking down a [[list of animals|moose]], by working as a team. This served as one of the Spartans' earliest lessons about the importance of teamwork; that a wolf alone would be a far less effective hunter than if it were accompanied by its pack.<ref>'''Halo: The Fall of Reach''', ''page 39''</ref> During one of Mendez's training missions, she helped the Spartan trainees when [[John-117]] called her instead of Mendez. Using a mail link, he linked her to an [[Albatross]] dropship to request she show him how to fly it to get the Spartans home. While she couldn't do that, she had him activate the autopilot, allowing her to take control of the craft and fly the Spartans home herself remotely. | Déjà's lessons were the part of the Spartans' training program meant to teach them to employ strategic thinking.

Déjà also acted as a sounding board for Dr. Halsey, discussing how the Spartan-II Program should be run. For example, the night the program officially began she advised Halsey on how to address the children. They also would discuss the treatment of the individual Spartans, as well as the ethics of their situation. As a "Dumb" AI, Déjà would tend to take the less emotional, more clinical side of these discussions: One example is when she asked Doctor Halsey if she was giving [[Soren-066]] the choice to proceed in the program in order to alleviate her own conscience.<ref>'''Halo Evolutions - Essential Tales of the Halo Universe''', ''Pariah''</ref> | Déjà also acted as a sounding board for Dr. Halsey, discussing how the Spartan-II Program should be run.
