Course Workshop & Avatars
Creating a course from material
対象教員
Put in files, up to three web addresses or a text — the workshop reads it, recognises the topics and suggests a course; or adopt a presentation 1:1, film a text as a script, start empty.
目的#
Nobody should start from zero. What already exists — slides, scripts, web pages, videos — becomes the starting point; the AI suggests, the author decides.

クリック手順Learning workshopNew courseDrag material in
- 1In the learning workshop (address /studio/kurs) “New course” — “What should it be created from?”.
- 2Drag material in (“Drag a file here or select one”: PDF, word processing, presentation, spreadsheet, text, SVG graphics, ZIP, video), enter up to three addresses separated by spaces under “Web address” or paste anything from a sentence to a finished text under “Text” (図 1).
図 1 “What should it be created from?”: file, web address or text, plus length, further options and filing. - 3Choose “Length” (Automatic, Short, Medium, Long — “about n slides”) and under “More options” the AI's writing style and the spoken duration; under “File under” choose or create a folder.
- 4“Draft course”. While “Reading material … Recognising topics … Drafting structure …” runs you do not have to wait: the suggestion is then under “Your drafts”, even if the tab was closed.
- 5Check the suggestion (“Suggestion — nothing has been created yet”): modules, slides, form of address (informal or formal), certificate; a click on a slide sketches the planned content. “What the AI saw in the material” lists the findings.
- 6Under “Adjust: modules, slides, duration” change values and “Suggest again with these values”; “Suggest topics” adds sensible topics, your own can be written line by line (“Include topics”).
- 7“Create course & write slides” — only now is the course created.
設定とスイッチ#
- テナントごとに切替可能既定：オンモジュール：Kurs-Studio
- Part of the module “Course Studio”; which text model writes follows from the text models the tenant has enabled.
- Files up to 100 MB each; large slide decks go directly into storage.
Four routes to a course#
- Draft course — the AI reads the material and suggests modules and slides.
- Film a script — a text remains the narration word for word; per paragraph (or per “## Scene”) a slide is created with presentation, speaker spot and ideas for interstitial images.
- Adopt presentation 1:1 — slides without AI rework; then apply corporate design, speaker and exports. Included vector graphics replace embedded images of the same name.
- Empty course — you create outline and slides yourself; the AI helps on request.
What the report after a 1:1 adoption states#
- how many slides were adopted and which instructions were read
- how many stage directions moved from the narration into the intent of the slide
- slides with a target duration and the total minutes (of which estimated)
- slides without source numbers in the narration
- adopted exam questions
- archive entries that were not adopted
If instructions do not match the slides, the report says so — the import is then the usual one.
Who may do what#
The learning workshop is open to every signed-in account if the tenant has booked Course Studio; every author sees their own drafts and courses (plus those shared by colleagues). Without an account of your own, trial access leads into a trial workshop.
ヒント#
- Three other routes are below the button: “Create empty course” (one module, one slide), “Or: film the text verbatim as a script” (one slide per paragraph, the text remains the narration word for word) and “Adopt presentation 1:1 (without AI)”.
- With the 1:1 adoption an included file can be read as production instructions: the import then knows what in the speaker notes is direction and what is narration — with markers, target durations, house colours and included exam questions.
- From a video the audio track is created in the browser; the transcript with timestamps is produced in the EU and serves as material.
- A course package (file extension .kurs.json) from another installation is adopted as a new draft — nothing is overwritten.
- Third-party courses in the standard format (SCORM, Common Cartridge with question pools) are adopted by the administration under “Third-party content”.

- Course workshop at a glanceBuild courses yourself: material in, the AI suggests a structure, slides and narration are created, an avatar presents — in four phases.
- Phase 1 · Content: outline and slidesDefine modules and slides, then work out every slide with narration and presentation — the longest and most important step.
- Interfaces to other learning systemsOther learning systems launch courses of this platform, third-party content runs here; plus keys for the platform's own programming interface and webhooks that notify other systems.
- Handing over course packagesExport a finished course as a file from one installation and import it into another — with a checksum, customer assignment and approval before it becomes visible.
- Text models of the workshopWhich language model writes the slide texts can be enabled per tenant — three models from different providers, one of them processed in the EU (Paris); models that cannot be chosen are greyed out with a reason.
