Week 2 - Group 3 Discussion

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:

1. 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.
2. 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.
3. 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!
