From Text-Driven Stories to AI-Supported Story Worlds

Long before AI entered classrooms, some of the most engaging digital learning came from simple, text-based adventures. These experiences worked because of their structure, each choice had consequences, and the world responded accordingly. In this blog post, the author argues that AI should enhance, not replace, instructional design. By building strong narrative frameworks (what game designers call a “story bible”) educators can use AI to generate dynamic, multilingual learning experiences. The post explores this idea through a Renaissance-themed text adventure that blends historical accuracy, guided decision-making, and language learning.

Why Educators and Technologists Need Each Other in the Age of AI

When I talk about AI in education at conferences, the room always splits. Some educators are excited. Others are skeptical. And I get it. If your only experience with AI is a chatbot that gives vague or inaccurate answers, it’s hard to trust. But behind the scenes, there’s a very different story. Through APIs and thoughtful design, we can shape AI into reliable instructional tools that support real learning goals. This isn’t about replacing teachers. It’s about collaboration. Educators and technologists must build these tools together, tools that reflect pedagogy, equity, and the diverse needs of today’s classrooms.

Generative AI Meets Biliteracy

At the 2025 ALER Conference, I presented with Viviana Hall, educational consultant and co-author of the bilingual children’s book ¿Hacia Dónde Va? / Where Are We Going?. We introduced a Dual Language Lesson Planner, an AI-powered tool that helps teachers create rich, standards-aligned lessons in English and Spanish. Built on generative AI and biliteracy principles, the tool uses structured inputs to generate culturally responsive activities tailored to student proficiency. Our message was clear: AI should amplify, not replace, teaching. With the right design and guidance, generative AI can become a powerful ally in biliteracy education, supporting educators.

Whether transforming orthography practice into interactive games or reimagining homework as “Homeplay,” our mission is clear: make learning feel like discovery. Because joyful learning creates lasting knowledge, and lasting knowledge transforms lives.
