This week I created a new presentation “from scratch” and documented every step of the way. So, today’s “DeepDive@5” will cover this. We start at 5 and go until we’re done, but I don’t expect it will be longer than 20-30 minutes. It will be recorded on YouTube, Facebook, LinkedIn, and X. You can also pose questions from YouTube and Facebook for me to answer. I hope it helps to share this with you! The recording will be posted below for those of you who find this afterwards.

In this session, I’ll take you behind the scenes of how I actually create presentations with AI—from the first handwritten notes to the final slides and graphics. This is practical guidance for anyone wanting to use AI well.
✨ What you’ll learn today:
- Ideas for how student assessments could change when AI enters the classroom.
- How to start without technology—framing the message before ever opening AI tools.
- The language of manipulation in AI and why the words we use about AI matter.
- A step-by-step look at Perplexity Pro as a research assistant—the good, the bad, and how to fact-check citations.
- The new APA guidelines (August 2025 update) for citing AI prompts, tools, and results.
- How to create training data from your own notes, Bible studies, and PDFs.
- Using Google Notebook LM for study prep and generating audio/video summaries.
- A side-by-side test of ChatGPT Projects vs. Claude Projects—and which one came out on top.
- How to use Gamma to turn outlines into professional slides quickly.
- A comparison of graphics generation tools (Gemini, Midjourney, Dall-E in ChatGPT)—with a clear winner.
- Real examples of AI-powered workflows I used for a recent college presentation.
I look forward to seeing some of you there!
