Instructor avatar-Led animated content INCLUDING Course Introduction, Lectures, and Language learning interactions such as ‘listen & repeat’
In this language course example, I created an animated avatar in the likeness of the instructor, and the instructor wrote the scripts and recorded the voiceover. This playlist includes the course introduction, lectures, and animated character conversations, as well as a listen-and-repeat where the user is asked to listen to each character introduce themselves, and then the animation pauses for them to practice what they heard. These animations along with illustrations of the avatar were intentionally incorporated into a Canvas course to provide learners with an instructor-led experience. My decision to use an avatar over using instructor-facing video was due to the fact that production is considerably more cost-effective. An added saving on this project was that all the voiceovers, with the exception of the instructor, were done using Hebrew and English text-to-speech. Here is the Animated Video Playlist of these examples which includes the videos below.
