As part of my work with the Harvard University Derek Bok Center for Teaching & Learning Lab, in conjunction with the course T127: Teaching and Learning Lab Practicum, I am developing an AI-powered tool that reimagines classroom learning by transforming traditional lecture content into multimodal, interactive storybooks. This project leverages generative AI platform APIs to produce tailored storybooks that integrate text, images, and audio, offering an intuitive and engaging way for educators to bring their lessons to life with minimal technical overhead.

Key features of this project include:

1) Multimodal Learning Integration: Combines text, visuals, and audio into a cohesive, interactive format for deeper engagement.

2) Educator-Centric Design: Minimizes technical effort, allowing educators to focus on teaching rather than tool management.

3) Customization with Generative AI: Adapts materials to diverse learning needs through tailored, developmentally appropriate outputs.

4) Research-Driven Approach: Grounded in principles of Universal Design for Learning (UDL), Dual-Coding Theory, and Multisensory Learning to enhance accessibility and retention.

This initiative is about more than just engagement—it's about empowering educators with tools that elevate their teaching while providing students with enriched, memorable, and inclusive ways to connect with course content.
