Creating engaging, AI-powered, narrative-driven learning experience for students
SceneCraft is a GenAI-powered storytelling platform that allows teachers to create narrative-driven learning experiences by entering a prompt in natural language that describes the foundation of the story they want SceneCraft to generate. The system produces story scenes, characters, and dialogue that teachers can completely customize to align with instructional goals. SceneCraft gives teachers control to align stories with their lessons, adapt content for their students, and shape how narratives unfold, all while ensuring they remain the key decision-makers when using AI.
SceneCraft is developed by the EngageAI Institute, which is supported by the National Science Foundation (NSF). Through this work, we are researching how AI can support narrative-based learning and examining how these tools can be scaled to benefit more classrooms. Teachers and students play a vital role in this research. By using SceneCraft, educators are helping us explore new ways AI can enhance storytelling, spark engagement, and open up fresh learning opportunities. As of September 2026, this phase of research has concluded and the team is currently using the collected data to continue work on narrative-based learning.
