Working With Generative AI in LearningFlow

Why This Matters​

Generative AI is transforming the way educators design, deliver, and personalize learning.
LearningFlow isn’t just a set of tools: it’s an orchestration platform where you combine powerful AI models from language and vision to voice and logic to build your own interactive educational experiences.

Working with generative AI requires a different mindset than traditional tool use.
Just as a great designer needs more than Photoshop skills, modern educators need to understand how to “think with AI.” On LearningFlow, your creativity and intent shape what the AI does, not the other way around.

How LearningFlow Brings AI Into Flow Design​

In LearningFlow, you don’t just use AI, you compose with it. Each flow is a customizable series of “nodes” that can:

  • Ask questions, generate feedback, or guide multi-turn conversations (using AI chat and knowledge models)
  • Analyze and branch based on user responses
  • Generate content (text, images, questions) in real time
  • Transcribe speech, describe images, translate text, and more

You decide:

  • Which AI model to use (OpenAI GPT, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, etc.)
  • How AI is prompted, what it sees, and what success looks like
  • Where and how to branch or intervene based on AI output and objectives

This makes each assignment or learning app truly adaptive and responsive to your goals.

Key Differences: Using Tools vs. Designing With AI​

Using Static ToolsDesigning With Generative AI (LearningFlow)
Fixed content, set pathsDynamic, adaptive content and branching
Designer controls every detail manuallyDesigner sets objectives, AI adapts as needed
Little customizationEndless customization and personalization
Output is predictableOutput is contextural and creative, but needs review

To succeed, you’ll want to blend good learning design practices with the new opportunities (and responsibilities) that AI brings.

What Kind of AIs Can You Use in LearningFlow?​

LearningFlow supports a wide and growing range of AI capabilities, including:

  • Large Language Models (GPT-4o, Claude, Gemini, etc.) for chat, feedback, scenario generation, and more
  • Image Generation (DALL·E, Gemini) for custom visuals
  • Vision/OCR (GPT-4o Vision, Mathpix, Mistral OCR) for analyzing images
  • Speech-to-Text & Text-to-Speech (Whisper, TTS-1, ElevenLabs, etc.)
  • Branching/Scenario: AI-driven flow logic that can take learners down different paths based on performance, understanding, or open response
  • Specialty Models: Translation, pronunciation, embedding vectors for search and more on the horizon

Each node that uses AI lets you pick which model to power it, letting you balance creativity, cost, and pedagogical goals.

Are There Challenges? (Yes Here’s Why Guidance Matters!)​

Working with advanced AI, you can:

  • Inspire new kinds of lessons, assessments, and student engagement
  • Reach more diverse learning needs faster and more flexibly

But you must also:

  • Guide the AI with clear, well-designed prompts
  • Evaluate outputs AI can be creative, but isn’t always “right”
  • Watch for biases, errors (“hallucinations”), and copyright concerns
  • Set clear objectives to make learning meaningful and safe

What You’ll Learn in This Section​

To help you become a truly effective “AI orchestrator,” this section explores:

  • What generative AI is the basics every educator/creator should know
  • Prompt design how to get the best, most reliable results
  • Evaluating AI judging quality, accuracy, bias, and fit for purpose
  • Creativity with AI paths to innovation, not just automation
  • Ethical/copyright issues your rights and responsibilities for safe, fair use
  • Practical scenarios and templates so you can see, adapt, and remix real-world examples

Ready to build with AI, not just use it?

LearningFlow empowers educators to unlock the potential of generative AI creatively, responsibly, and with purpose. This guide will show you how.
