The instructional goal of this video is to provide learners the opportunity to learn about how to quickly use ChatGPT to generate a text at different reading levels in order to differentiate content in a co-taught class. This video addresses Objective #4 in my course, which states, “Participants will be able to use online tools to create differentiated instructional materials and instructional strategies that meet the needs of diverse learners in a virtual classroom environment.” This course is built for virtual school teachers, which means that virtual school leaders and teachers are my clients.

In order to create this video, I used Camtasia, which I find has a excellent screen recorder and is very easy to edit. I then recorded my screen as I modeled how to use an existing reading passage in ChatGPT and coach the language model to provide differentiated passages while maintaining the same content.

The most challenging aspect of making this screen recording was wanting to go off script and explain more about the features and capabilities of ChatGPT. However, I realized that I would provide too much information based on the time recommendations of this video, so I narrowed my scope to one specific prompt. This video allowed me to see when a screencast would be preferred, which is when you as a designer are demonstrating a process.
