Learning teams are under pressure to deliver high-quality learning faster, often with fewer resources. Used strategically, AI can help address this challenge.

This case-study session shares how our team has moved beyond experimenting with generative AI to intentionally embedding AI within our instructional design process. Through real-world use and iteration, we’ve identified specific moments where AI delivers the greatest impact—either by reclaiming design and development time or by enabling new interaction designs that were previously too complex, time-consuming, or expensive. After a brief overview of our instructional design process and where AI has been successfully embedded, we will explore two real-world examples:

1. High-impact time savings through AI-supported analysis and scripting for Storyline and video development
2. New development capabilities enabled by AI, including character animation, advanced hover interactions, AI-assisted video editing, and lightweight JavaScript enhancements in Storyline

In this session, you will learn to:

• Identify high-impact opportunities to embed generative AI within the instructional design process
• Apply practical AI techniques to accelerate content design and development
• Evaluate how AI can expand development capabilities beyond traditional constraints

Attendees should be familiar with core instructional design concepts and proficient in developing eLearning using tools such as Articulate Storyline and common video editing platforms. Prior experience with AI tools or programming is not required. Attendees should be aware of generative AI capabilities and open to applying them strategically during analysis, scripting, and development. Lightweight JavaScript examples and AI-enabled development assets are presented at a conceptual level.
