Hi everyone! Here is my Rise AI project for you to check out, along with a few reflections on my experience: https://share.articulate.com/yLbLuB6UsxjtHfN9AQsKm
Bringing AI into e-learning course design is rapidly changing our workflows.
To prevent the course from turning into a passive reading exercise, I made three key changes to the draft:
- Brand-Aligned Visuals: Instead of generic stock images, I generated custom visual assets that follow our exact brand style. A cohesive look keeps learners visually immersed.
- Interactivity: I transformed dense text blocks into bite-sized scenario questions and interactive knowledge checks, encouraging learners to actively test their understanding in real time.
- Clear and Scannable Text Structure: I condensed the AI-generated text into easily digestible bullet points and bolded key keywords. This reduces cognitive overload and helps learners quickly grasp essential concepts.
The most valuable and surprising feature throughout the process was the ability to generate high-quality, on-brand visuals directly within the course platform. This used to take up an immense amount of our production time. I was genuinely amazed by how accurately the AI locked onto our visual identity and maintained stylistic consistency—saving hours of manual image editing and freeing up time to focus on quality instructional design.
Overall, the experiment went amazingly well. While fine-tuning prompts required a little tweaking at first, my prompting skills improved significantly even within this short trial. It’s been great to see how fast the learning curve is, and I’m super excited to take these learnings and apply them directly to my everyday work!
Nice job incorporating AI Assistant into your course! I especially enjoyed the images you included. You did an excellent job using image prompts to create high-quality visuals that complemented the content and enhanced the overall learner experience. The images felt purposeful and aligned well with the course material, making the content more engaging and visually appealing.
Amazing using the AI Assistant in your course! I really liked the visual aspect that you were able to create for your course. You did an excellent job using thoughtful image prompts.
Good job on this course! I really liked the 3D animation used in the first lesson and the way the text was structured. It created a seamless flow through the content, while the different background colors helped distinguish the sections. I also appreciated the use of interactive blocks to add engagement.
I liked the seamless flow of the content in the second and third lessons as well. One small navigation suggestion for Lesson 2 it seemed to be missing a divider or connector to guide the learner into Lesson 3 without having to select Lesson 3 from the panel menu.
I also noticed that Lessons 2 and 3 were more content heavy and didn’t have visual elements or interactive blocks to support the material. Adding a few visuals or interactions throughout the entire course can help break up the content, maintain engagement, and give learners additional ways to process and interact with the information.
