1 TopicAI Assistant: Summarizing Swiftly with Summary Generation
As a course author, you know summaries matter. They help learners retain key takeaways, enhancing the overall effectiveness of your training and making it easier for them to grasp and apply new knowledge. But after you’ve completed a course full of comprehensive content, the last thing you may want to do is summarize everything. Fortunately, AI Assistant can help. Available in Rise 360 and Storyline 360, AI Assistant's summary generation feature helps you summarize swiftly by listing the key takeaways from all the lessons in your course. Then, you can customize the summary—choose the level of detail, pinpoint a focus area, and set the tone, audience, and style. Pro tip: For best results, ask for a range rather than a specific number of summary items. For example, ask for “3 to 5 bullet list items” rather than “3 bullet list items”. AI Assistant can generate summaries at both the course and lesson level. For a lesson summary, AI Assistant summarizes the content using a single paragraph block, while a course summary uses several block types, including paragraph, list, note, and statement. Access the course-level summary generation feature in the AI Assistant dropdown menu in the upper right of the course overview page. For lesson-level summary generation, use the AI Assistant dropdown menu within a lesson. In Storyline 360, you can access summary generation in story view or slide view. Story view gives you the option to create a course-level summary based on the content of the project, scenes, or specific slides, while in slide view, you can create a lesson-level summary based on the current scene or select slides. Choose between a prebuilt layout and a blank slide for the generated summary, as shown in the following images. Note that when you select Prebuilt layout, AI Assistant may create multiple slides to fit all bullet points. See below for examples of each option.487Views0likes0Comments
