So let's talk about our next AI tool, and it's called MagicPresentation
0:05
So we are going to generate a presentation from different text prompts
0:10
So right now I'm in a Canva doc, I'm going to open MagicWrite, and the prompt here is
0:16
going to be, write a slide-based presentation on the benefits of using AI to learn
0:24
In just a few minutes, MagicWrite should be able to give me an outline of the presentation
0:32
Here it is. So this can be extremely helpful. But what I'm going to do next is take this a step further
0:40
I'm going to use that same text prompt, not only generate the outline of the presentation
0:47
but to actually generate the presentation. Here's how you do it. We're going to get out of this Canva doc, I am going to open a presentation, and I'm
0:57
going to choose a blank presentation. Now at the bottom of every Canva design, you will see the magic button right over here
1:05
I'm going to select that, and I'm going to choose magic design
1:10
This time I'm going to copy that same prompt, and I'm going to select enter to confirm
1:26
Next you can see a number of different themes, which have been automatically generated
1:31
I think I like this one the best. If I scroll down, I can get an idea of what my presentation might look like
1:40
Now I'm going to choose create my presentation, and you can see just in a few seconds Canva
1:47
is able to create a detailed presentation about a specific topic. Now one of the things that you'll probably notice if you were to give like a 10 minute
1:59
presentation about AI for learning, is this detailed enough for that presentation
2:06
Probably not. What has to happen is you would have to go in and modify this, change the content
2:14
If you don't like these photos, or if you want to add a custom photo, you can do that
2:18
by uploading your own photo and changing the background. Any of this text, that sort of thing, you would have to go in and modify
2:27
If I generate a presentation using magic design or magic presentation, I do find that a lot
2:34
of times I have to go in and change some things around
2:37
But that's fine, because editing a finished version of a shorter presentation is a lot
2:44
easier than trying to create a presentation from scratch. So this is an excellent way for you or your students to start creating content like presentations
2:55
Again, it's not a finished product, but it is the beginning to start thinking about how
3:01
you want to create that finished product. So again, anything on here you can change
3:08
There's all kinds of different templates that you can simply replace if you like one of
3:14
these designs better. After you're finished, you can select share and you can download it in a number of different ways
3:23
And of course, you can always add more slides or change anything here
3:29
The big idea here is that you're kind of using that text prompt to create the start of a
3:35
presentation that you can hopefully use and communicate some ideas to an audience
