Thx for letting me join! Wrapping up my MSIDT & building some eLearning courses on the side (plus running a biz!). Just finished a paper on AI + adaptive learning- interesting stuff. Excited to learn from this space!

[Kayla Wilson @ObsidianLLC_]

@bevinzey Yes! Well said. I just finished a research paper on AI in edu, and one of the major points I made is that it is NOT being designed to replace teachers. Instead, it forms a partnership and gives them time-saving tools that help individualize learning & enhances learning outcomes.

@bevinzey depends on the topic and how complex. Usually a, but will go with option c if it is a bit more complex and I need more visuals.

As someone who previously worked in psych, I love seeing perspectives that bridge my 2 worlds-psych & IDT. Even in eLearning, empathy plays a crucial role in creating effective and engaging learning experiences. https://t.co/L0zO7VJb2U

AI is transforming #IDT, and is one of the areas I'm most excited about. From personalized learning paths to automating repetitive tasks, AI helps create more effective and scalable learning experiences. This post on LinkedIn was a great read:

I came across the attached article and felt like the author did a great job of explaining why we don't need to be SMEs in Instructional Design & Technology. It is definitely worth a read!

My son inspires my #IDT journey everyday. It amazes me how children's brains absorb so much knowledge! Storytelling specifically boosts retention by creating emotional connections & organizing new information. By teaching this way, it makes learning engaging & memorable! #EdTech

In my last post, I talked about how much I've loved using Lumen5 for my #IDT content. Ever hungry to find the next best thing, I decided to peruse for other #AI video generators and came across this gem. Lumen5 came in at #10. I hadn't even heard of most of the top 5. #elearning

9 Best AI Video Generators (May 2024). AI-based image generators are still in their infancy. Most of the tools can analyze your video content or video scripts to choose matching assets to the scenes. https://t.co/4VbJnbMuk7 #edtech #ILoveEdTech #ImFutureReady #elearning #AI

Using Lumen5 for my latest project has been a game-changer. This article shows how to create 3 videos in 30 minutes. You can convert content from PDFs, Word, and PowerPoint into videos, create script spin-offs, create a video from a blog & so much more! #Lumen5 #EdTech #IDT

[Lumen5 @LumenFive]

🤔 How long does it take for you to make a video? Reusing content like a blog, PDF, or slideshow in a software like Lumen5 can cut down your video creation process by hours. It may even alter the amount of videos you can make in a mere 30 minutes… 🙆‍♀️ https://t.co/QzfP7ZOBlo

This is amazing. Everybody should have equal opportunities to learn, regardless of disabilities or other extenuating circumstances. We're coming a long way in trainings, but it is important to keep paving the path forward so that people from all walks of life can learn and grow.

[Kayla Wilson @ObsidianLLC_]

Well said! And sometimes you have to route that plan for a bridge through multiple checkpoints for approval, and may even have to get creative with the approach. But a functional bridge is everything!

[A-Aron Clark @wildmayan]

As a designer of sales curriculum that serves to both identify a knowledgeable gap and bridge it through an instructional intervention, I find it important to remember that we are not searching for missing knowledge, we are creating it and guiding learners across that divide.

For some reason I always forget Grammarly is a thing! Thank you for this reminder. I like how it can help you re-work what you've already written to sound more concise and professional as well! #grammarly

[Keith Dickey @keithdickey1]

Using Grammarly is a great way to ensure that your instructinal design documents are easy to follow, well crafted, and mistake free.

It is important to discuss the bifurcation of content and pedagogy as instructional designers, or as any person that will ever have to teach a skill to another person. This is a fantastic read and really makes you think. #pedagogy #IDT

IDT friends, I found this article on developing eLearning videos from the eLearning Industry to be so helpful!
