The video below was 100% AI generated except for the words, which I wrote to go along with the PD I was presenting. Why did I do this?
The answer is simple, I wanted my audience of teachers to have other voices besides mine for this PD. So, I created some co-presenters, and it worked!
As the video was playing, I watched the teachers. They were completely engrossed in what the video was saying. So, the first time they heard the directions was from the AI, and then I planned on following up with similar instructions as the activities began.
AI can be a powerful teaching companion so that your students hear more voices than just yours.

What if there's only your voice, is AI still worth the effort? I would say yes. I make supplemental training videos that use cartoon characters, but it;s still my voice talking. It doesn't seem to matter, students respond as if it's a whole other character/person. This breaks up the information into manageable sound bites for the learners to digest.
In the video above I used Adobe Character Animator along with a Canva presentation and some other studio recording software. This allow me to animate myself as I explained and lead the classroom activities for learning fifth-grade math.
Some aspects of Adobe Character Animator are AI-powered, but the learning curve is sharp. My advice, if you're looking to animate yourself, is to use the Adobe Express version of Character Animator. More on learning to do that coming soon.
