I’m excited to be presenting at the 𝗔𝗜 𝗶𝗻 𝗞-𝟭𝟮 𝗘𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗦𝘂𝗺𝗺𝗶𝘁 this June! I’ll be showcasing my 𝗠𝘂𝗹𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗼𝗱𝗮𝗹 𝗩𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗼 𝗘𝘃𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿 (𝗠𝗩𝗘) bot. usfeducreate.com/ai-summit/ #DigitalLearning #EduConference #AIEducation #MulimediaDesign

I’m excited to announce that I’ll be presenting at the 4th Annual Teaching and Learning with AI conference hosted by @UCF_FCTL, @UCFDigitalLearn and the @UCFLibrary at @UCF. Register here: digitallearning.ucf.edu/teachwithai/re… #TeachWithAI #EduConference #AIEducation

Good advice is usually ignored. Why? Because it lacks a hook.🪝 I’m reintroducing my 3-Step Makeover Framework—a strategy to turn "must-read" resources into "want-to-read" content. Step 3 is the "Seductive Trailer." Watch it in action here: 👇 #InstructionalDesign #StudyHacks

@_SilasVane Thanks for your feedback. You are absolutely right. That's where years of expertise come in, breaking down the theories & principles into concrete, practical rules that experts use to make design choices & judgment. I'm designing the knowledgebase and system prompt to do that. ;)

@DrKeLearning Interesting direction. The hard part is getting evaluator signal to track expert judgment on pacing, framing, and instructional clarity, not just checklist compliance.

Sneak peek: Turning 127 design guidelines into a digital partner. 🤖✨ I’ve been hard at work on the Multimodal Video Evaluator (v1).  The goal is to eventually match the level of expertise I provide in person. Stay tuned for more updates! #EdTech #AIinEducation

wrote an "Online Learning Success Guide" packed with value, but the real challenge is getting students to read it. To bridge that gap, I created this 3-minute strategy video. Think of it as the "trailer" to the main event. #InstructionalDesign #OnlineLearning #EdTech

My new AI talking avatar workflow. It's the cleanest, most streamlined workflow so far, costs little to nothing, and takes less than 10 mins once your assets are ready. It can be done entirely for free, but I pay $29.99/year for #DreamFace for unlimited avatar video productions.

A quick educational pitch from my office, "What is a multimodal strategy and why should it matter?"

I wanted to use my #Notion databases (published and public) as knowledgebase sources for my #Gemini (Pro) custom chatbots, but it didn't work. Same for #ChatGPT (free version). See the video below. Gemini Pro gave me false info (hallucinated). ChatGPT couldn't access my database.

I was installing and running GenAI apps on my computer, which had taken up 500GB of the disk space. My laptop was 97% full. To save space, I bought the 2TB external SSD (pic 1), and I'm now offloading the AI models and other large files to this 2TB SSD! #ComfyUI #ssd #wavlink

Happy New Year!!!

#Gemini #NanoBanana does an excellent job extending images. Doing so creates more room for creativity —these extended versions allow for more design options. I used to have to work 100 times harder to manually expand images. I don't miss those days. Thanks, #GenAI! :)

I tried this new voice cloning, TTS tool to create a multi-speaker podcast audio for one of the online courses. I normally use #Elevenlabs, but this new open source tool #VibeVoice is surprisingly good. I now use it as part of my regular production workflows. :)

I've just saved a lot of time using AI again. My ordinary method takes at least 10-20 minutes to do it. But with this method it only took a few seconds! Anyone who doesn't use AI is in huge disadvantage. #gemini #ai #transcribe

I really like a 3-monitor setup. It makes my work a lot easier. :)

I've been having the issue with choppy audio from my Bluetooth headphone on my desktop computer after the two recent updates from Realtek Semiconductor Corp. Luckily, the update installed today fixed it. Glad it happened before my next virtual meeting. :) #realtek #bluetooth

The Adobe Enhance Speech tool has been around for a while. I think it's worth sharing. Free users get decent usage limits — process audio up to 1 hour long /day, 30 min long & 500MB /audio file. I get much higher limits with Adobe CC subscription. #adobepodcast #enhancespeech

#VEO3 video generation model now supports text-to-speech and lip sync using generic voices. For my #talkingavatar videos, I needed my own voice, so I used the #Elevenlabs #voicechanger to change the voice to my own. This is a pretty clean and seamless process. I like it!
