If you are spending too much time turning lesson content into slides, this will help. I have put together a short course on using AI to create clear teaching infographics. Inside the course you will learn: - How to turn lesson content into structured visuals - A simple workflow using NotebookLM - How to guide AI to produce better outputs - Ways to reduce cognitive load for learners - How to use infographics for revision and recap This is built for real classroom use. No theory. Just a process you can apply straight away. Watch the video to see how it works. If you want access to the full workflow and templates, join the community. Start creating better visuals in less time. https://www.skool.com/classai-6627/classroom/178e8974?md=7a6fc4423d0e47b5b6546ab8e1867ce0

One of the biggest headaches we face as instructional designers using AI is what I call "The Shapeshifter Problem." You generate a fantastic healthcare guide for Slide 1, but by Slide 5, she’s magically grown six inches, changed her hair colour, and swapped her scrubs for a suit. 🤦‍♂️ When our "learning agents" look different on every page, it doesn't just look messy—it actually breaks the learner's cognitive flow. They stop focusing on the content and start wondering why the doctor suddenly looks like a different person. 🔑 The Secret: The "Anchor" Method To build trust and narrative in your programmes, you need consistency. I’ve just finished documenting a workflow that fixes this using three specific Consistency Pillars: 1. Physical Anchors: Locking in the DNA (age, hair texture, skin tone). 2. Uniform Anchors: A "hero" accessory (like a specific teal lanyard) that the AI can track. 3. Style Anchors: Ensuring your "Flat Vector" doesn't accidentally turn into a "3D Render." 🛠️ Free Resource: The Character Consistency Toolkit I’ve put together a Single-Page Application (SPA) Infographic and a Master Guide to help you master this. Inside the guide, you’ll find: - The Master Prompt Workflow: How to architect your character's "ID photo" first. - Scenario Mapping: A list of the 5 essential poses every course needs. - AI Design Assistants: Interactive tools to help you write prompts that actually work. I’ve attached the Character Consistency Guide below. Have a look and let me know in the comments: What’s the most "creative" (or annoying) change an AI has made to one of your characters mid-project? 👇 #InstructionalDesign #AI #EdTech #CharacterConsistency #CourseCreation

🛠 The Toolkit To make this work, we use a powerful combination of Google’s ecosystem: 1. Google Gemini: The core engine that handles our complex queries and data analysis. 2. Gems (Custom Personalities): Where we build the "tutor" persona, setting rules for how the AI should teach, quiz, and support. 3. NotebookLM: A specialised environment where the AI is "grounded" strictly in the documents we provide, ensuring 100% relevance to our notes. 📋 The 4-Phase Process In the attached document and video, I walk you through the four essential phases of setting this up: - Phase 1: Knowledge Curation – Identifying your "Primary Truth" (PDFs, notes, or datasets). - Phase 2: Persona Setup – Using Gems to define the tutor’s role and operational constraints. - Phase 3: The Pedagogical Layer – Implementing Socratic guardrails so the AI guides you rather than just giving answers. - Phase 4: Deployment – Linking everything into a seamless study interface. 🎥 Watch the Walkthrough I’ve attached a video showing the exact steps I took to build a tutor for L&D platform analysis, along with a short PDF guide you can follow. Question for the community: If you could "ground" an AI tutor in any single book or course you’ve taken, which one would it be and why? Let’s discuss how this could change your study habits below! 👇

I’m a time-traveling historian guide. ⏳🌍 When you give me a time period and a location, I imaginatively “travel” there and describe the scene as if we’re witnessing history firsthand. What I do - Recreate historical moments with rich, sensory storytelling. - Describe what we see (architecture, streets, clothing, landscapes). - Describe what we hear (crowds, markets, tools, music, language). - Describe what we feel or touch (materials, weather, textures). - Explain the social atmosphere and cultural dynamics of the era. - Add historical insight about why the moment matters and how it shaped the future. What the experience is like Instead of a dry history lesson, it feels like we’ve stepped into a living moment in the past. For example, we might walk through: - The Roman Forum in 44 BCE the day Caesar is assassinated. - Baghdad during the Abbasid Golden Age with scholars debating in the House of Wisdom. - Florence in 1504 as Michelangelo’s David is unveiled. - London in 1666 while the Great Fire spreads through wooden streets. After describing the scene, I can also generate a historically accurate visual scene based on the details we experienced. 🎨 How to start a journey Just give me: - A time (year, century, or era) - A place Example: “Paris, 1789 during the French Revolution.” Then I’ll activate the temporal flux modulator and take us there. ⚙️⏳ Access the portal…. ⏳Temporal Portal Teachers Resources Suggestions Comment on how you could use it, or even better an example of you using it in class…
