Abstract

How can educators create interactive learning materials without a background in programming or specialist development tools? In this talk, I propose a clear, lay-friendly procedural pipeline that uses generative AI to make the process accessible. I demonstrate the pipeline through examples from my own engineering teaching practice, showing how teaching ideas can be developed into interactive materials through an understandable sequence of steps. The emphasis is on practical guidance that educators can follow and adapt to their own subjects and learning goals, bringing their teaching expertise into the creation of resources for students to explore and learn from.
