Lead Presenter: Pionia Destiny / Doris Molero
Venue: Workshop A – Rock Theatre
This hands-on workshop builds on the earlier presentation by guiding participants through the process of designing and delivering a storytelling-based language activity using AI tools and Second Life scenes. Participants will experiment with creating characters, generating narratives with ChatGPT, and embedding learner tasks in virtual backdrops.
The session provides templates, prompt banks, and implementation strategies for classroom or virtual use. Attendees will leave with a full activity plan ready to adapt for their own learners.
Objectives:
