So let's get started with the first tool, and that is called Magic Right
0:04
Now, this is a feature that's only available for teachers or staff on a Canva education account
0:10
It's not available to students yet, but let's see how it works
0:15
So Magic Right is available on all of the Canva designs, but I think it works best on a Canva doc
0:23
This is kind of like a Google Doc that you can create in Canva, but a document that you can just make more
0:29
visual. So this is my Canva doc. The first thing that I want to do is to show you Magic Right
0:36
To do this, I'm going to hit the plus button and I'm going to select Magic Right
0:41
So this is basically, this, this is basically a version of Chat GPT. It's not exactly the same
0:48
but there is a version of GPT 3.5 that Canva has embedded into its platform. And you use Magic
0:57
Right the same way you would use Chat. GPD. So it says use five or more words to describe what you want to write. So in this case
1:06
I'm going to ask Magic Write to give me some of the benefits of using AI. And in just a few
1:14
moments, I should be given a prompt. There it is. Right over here on the screen. Okay. Now
1:24
this is good but let say that maybe I want more text I want to expand this text I can do that with Magic Write by simply copying the text hitting the plus button and choosing this option that says expand
1:43
Okay, so now I have a expanded version of text. Now, I mentioned earlier how some of the AI tools in Canva are safe
1:53
Canva has put some precautions in. So what it's able to generate, there is a character limit
2:00
So you're not going to be able to have Magic Write generate a five-page essay
2:07
There's just too many characters. There's a limit. So if students do at some point have access to Magic Right, they won't be able to use it to write
2:16
multi-page essays. It's really just kind of like a brainstorming tool or a tool that will get students to be thinking about a topic
2:25
Same thing if this was the essay, and I was talking about some of the benefits of AI
2:31
It gives me some good information, but it's probably not going to be complete enough for me to turn in for an assignment
2:38
So again, just an example of precautions. Also, if you're doing anything malicious, like I talked about, writing malicious code, it will not do that
2:47
So this is a safe tool for students to be able to kind of experiment using AI if at some point they are a malicious code
2:55
able to use it Okay so let me go down Let me try MagicRite again This time I going to ask it to give me five ways to use AI with Canva
3:09
Okay, and there we go. There are five different suggestions, just a really helpful tool when you are starting to begin a document
3:19
If you don't want to start with a completely blank page, you can use Magic Rite, and it will kind of give you a little bit of help
3:27
to begin writing your document. Okay, now let me show you one other thing
3:33
So this is an article from Newzella. It's just about the topic of the multiverse
3:39
So let's say that I have this reading and I'm just looking for a quick way to summarize everything
3:47
It's not super important to my job. I don't have to go through and read it close
3:53
but I just kind of want to get a summary of what a block of text is
3:57
So what I'm going to do is I will take all of the text
4:02
And again, this can be from any website. It doesn't have to be Newzella. It can be from any site
4:11
I'm going to go back to my document. This time I'm going to go to the bottom
4:16
And I'm just going to paste my text. Okay, that's all the text that I copied and past it from that article
4:25
Now I'm just going to highlight that text. And this time if I go up to the top I going to select the plus button or that magic button and I going to choose this option summarize text
4:41
And there we go. It was able to summarize that long, multi-paragraph article into a concise block of text
4:53
And again, if this is something important, you probably wouldn't want to only rely
4:58
on that summary tool, but it is there if you're looking for a quick way to summarize text
5:05
Now, the other thing that you may have noticed is that if I highlight the text on the page
5:10
and if I click that magic button, I do have the option to even rewrite this text
5:15
So not only did Canva summarize that text, but I can use the rewrite feature to now rewrite
5:23
this text in a different way. So if you're in a district that has chat GPT blocked and you have access to Canva
5:31
I would definitely start to experiment with MagicRite. So again, MagicRate is available in Canva for all faculty and staff
5:41
It is not on student accounts as of now, but it's definitely one to check out
