Overview
The course helps teachers master AI content generation technology, using AI tools to produce teaching illustrations, concept animations and short videos, and to quickly generate essay topics, science explanations and cross-disciplinary tasks. It also combines generated-image and story-creation activities to spark students' interest in discussion and creation, improving teaching effectiveness and learning motivation.
Course Content
-Introduction to the basic concepts of AI image generation tools; learning to produce visual materials such as teaching illustrations, teaching material covers and portraits of historical figures
Exploring and Practising with AI Video Tools
-Introduction to the functions of AI video tools; mastering techniques for quickly producing short videos of lesson highlights, student activity recaps and concept animations
AI Text Creation Tools for Teaching Material Design
-Practical methods of using AI text creation tools to help write teaching material presentations, lesson plan content and cross-disciplinary tasks
Improving Multimedia Production Efficiency and Classroom Appeal
-Through the integrated use of AI tools, reducing teachers' multimedia production workload and improving the visual effect of teaching materials and students' learning motivation
Developing Generative AI Application Ability and Creative Thinking
-Through the process of practising with text, images and audio-video, building teachers' foundational ability to use generative AI for media creation and promoting innovative thinking in teaching
