Create an Online Course with AI

Creating a professional-quality online course used to take months. With AI, you can reduce this timeline to a few weeks while maintaining a high quality level. Here is the complete method.

Phase 1: Structuring (1-2 days)

Define the Curriculum with AI

Use Claude or ChatGPT to define your course structure. Provide your expertise, target audience, and learning objectives. The AI proposes a detailed plan module by module.

Create Learning Objectives

Ask the AI to formulate SMART learning objectives for each module using Bloom's taxonomy. This ensures a coherent pedagogical progression.

Phase 2: Content Writing (3-5 days)

Video Scripts

For each lesson, provide your expert notes to the AI. It transforms your ideas into structured video scripts with introduction, development, examples, and conclusion.

Course Materials

The AI generates structured PDF materials: module summaries, practical sheets, checklists, and templates. Use Claude Artifacts to get well-formatted documents.

Quizzes and Exercises

The AI creates multiple-choice quizzes, practical exercises, and case studies based on each module's content. Vary formats to maintain engagement.

Phase 3: Production (3-5 days)

Voiceover with ElevenLabs

If you do not want to record your own voice, ElevenLabs generates natural-sounding voiceovers from your scripts. Choose from hundreds of voices or clone your own.

Visuals with Midjourney

Generate illustrations, diagrams, and visuals for your slides with Midjourney or DALL-E. Maintain a consistent visual style with the same base prompt.

Assisted Editing

Tools like Descript let you edit videos like a text document. The AI removes silences and hesitations and generates subtitles automatically.

Phase 4: Publishing

Deploy on Teachable, Thinkific, or your own platform. The AI can even help you write the sales page and launch emails.

Conclusion

AI does not replace your expertise — it amplifies it. Your added value remains your experience and teaching ability. AI accelerates production so you can focus on what matters. AI2 Lab trains instructors in using AI for educational content creation.
