So now let's take it a step further
0:03
How specifically could you use text to image for student assignments? I think that there's a great connection to individual writing
0:11
So our students write all of these really creative, original ideas, but when it comes
0:18
to illustrate some of those ideas, it may be challenging to find photos that do it justice
0:25
So this is a story about a young girl who wakes up in Washington DC and sees Ivy covered
0:32
all around the Washington Monument. That's going to be a hard photo to find on the internet
0:38
It's going to be a challenging photo for this student to be able to recreate with a drawing
0:43
if they don't have that artistic ability. And if I search the Canva Elements library, it's probably not going to be there
0:51
So what I like about text to image is I can use text to image to find an appropriate illustration
0:58
for their writing. So here you can see my prompt was the Washington Monument covered in Ivy
1:04
Text to image was able to find, it was able to create a great photo of our monument covered
1:10
in lots of different layers of Ivy. You can see the one that I selected and some of the other suggestions to the left
1:19
Now further in that story, this young girl takes out a pair of scissors and actually
1:24
tries to cut the Ivy off herself. This shows you some of the limitations that the technology currently has
1:32
Now, if you look to the left, there are the four images that were generated
1:36
I do kind of like that one on the top right. I think that might work for this story, but you can see the one next to it
1:45
For some reason, the girl's face is just in the right-hand corner
1:48
I'm not really sure why. And she doesn't have scissors. She has like a long, some kind of long blade
1:54
If you look all the way to the right where my photo has been enlarged, there's that young
1:59
girl, but there's some sort of really strange blur over her face
2:03
She's not using a pair of scissors. It looks like she has some kind of blade in for some reason
2:09
There is a green scarf or green material wrapped around her arm
2:14
So sometimes you do get some very interesting results, but fortunately you can generate
2:19
this multiple times until you find something that you want. So that is Canvas text to image
2:26
I think it's a great way for you and for students to begin using AI and begin to discuss some
2:33
of the features associated with it
