Challenge AI Outputs Presentation Series

A three-session series that turns the Challenge AI Outputs guide into a facilitated learning experience. The sessions help instructional designers use AI as a design partner, then review, question, and improve AI-generated learning materials before anything gets built.

The series connects directly to the workbook and one-page checklist resource. Use the decks when you want to teach the workflow live, support a team discussion, or give IDs reusable prompts and review moves they can practice together.

Preview and download the decks

Each deck is a PowerPoint file with slide content and facilitator notes. People can move through the slide previews on this page, open a larger preview, or download the editable PowerPoint files.

1. Foundations

Start with learner action, context, and objectives before asking AI to draft or revise learning materials.

Best for: setting the workflow and helping IDs turn vague requests into clearer design targets.

2. Materials That Fit

Choose the right support for the learner need, including learning plans, eLearning, job aids, scenarios, assessments, and practice.

Best for: challenging whether AI created the right format before a team starts building.

3. Review + Improve

Review AI-generated drafts for assumptions, accessibility barriers, plain language, usefulness, practice, feedback, and revision needs.

Best for: building stronger review habits before polished AI drafts become learner-facing materials.

The slide previews are exported images from the decks, similar to the Storytelling presentation page. Use the PDF links for a browser-friendly full-document view, or download the PPTX files when you want the editable decks and speaker notes.

These decks are companion resources for the Challenge AI Outputs guide and checklist. Adapt the prompts, examples, and activities to your own team, tools, and project types.

Series overview

This presentation series helps IDs slow down at the points where AI outputs can sound good but still miss the learner need.

The throughline is simple: polished does not mean useful. Each session gives learners a way to check whether an AI output supports real learner action, uses the right format, includes practice and feedback, and avoids unnecessary access barriers.

Session 1Clarify what learners need to do, give AI the design frame, and anchor the work with observable objectives.
Session 2Challenge whether the format fits the task, decision, behavior, performance need, or moment of use.
Session 3Review assumptions, plain language, accessibility, learner-facing copy, and useful revision steps.

Session flow

The decks move from before-drafting decisions to format choices to review and improvement.

  1. Foundations: Start with performance, context, and objectives so AI has a useful target.
  2. Materials That Fit: Decide whether the learner needs a job aid, scenario, eLearning, learning plan, assessment, or practice activity.
  3. Review + Improve: Ask AI to surface assumptions, find barriers, revise for plain language, and improve the draft before build.

How to use the decks

Use these as facilitation materials, team enablement, or a starting point for an internal AI review routine.

  • Run the sessions as a short series for an ID team or learning design community of practice.
  • Pull one deck into a team meeting when you need a focused conversation about AI-supported design.
  • Use the prompt slides as reusable examples for creating, reviewing, or revising AI-generated learning materials.
  • Pair the activities with real drafts, outlines, objectives, job aids, or assessments from your team’s work.

Connected guide and checklist

The presentation series is connected to the Challenge AI Outputs guide and one-page checklist.

Use the guide when you want deeper review questions, examples by material type, and reusable prompts. Use the checklist when you need a fast pre-build review. Use these decks when you want to teach or practice the same workflow with a group.
