Example Scenario
I want to change the final product of a group assignment I’ve been using in my course for a while from a paper to a video. I know very little about creating videos and where to start. The goal is not focused on learning the skills to create a professional-style video but on effective ways to share the information with other students. They will be doingacademic research with a librarian, creating an annotated bibliography, and creating an outline of the main topics and subtopics of their project. They will provide a draft of the project as either storyboards and/or a draft script and/or a portion of the video. The students have created a proposal of their project and that will be shared with the AI. The students will have 8 weeks to complete their project.
Prompt
A long prompt was used in the session so there was sufficient time to explore the outcomes. Similar outcomes can be accomplished with shorter prompts engaging in the AI as a conversation. The free versions of three AI's were used to provide financial equity.
