At CSA Education, we’re often buzzing with ideas to improve our content development and deliver the best educational materials out there. Our recent adventure with one of our clients was a perfect chance, suggested by the client itself, to bring a little AI magic into our workflow, giving us some cool insights and adding to our toolbox.
Project Scope
CSA’s ELA team was tasked with developing engaging and effective content for specific learning objectives, for multilingual learners. The scope was broad, requiring a diverse range of topics and textual styles to meet the curriculum’s needs, while incorporating cultural sensitivity and care as to not put the client’s proprietary information at risk. This project was an ideal candidate for piloting AI integration, allowing us to test its capabilities in enhancing efficiency and creativity without compromising our high standards of quality.
Process
Our content creation process usually involves a fun mix of brainstorming, drafting, and refining. For this project, we cranked things up a notch by tapping into AI for initial ideas and first drafts. This saved valuable time in the schedule and enabled our talented writers to focus on the really important stuff: finessing the content and adding that special sparkle only a human can. The project’s success can be attributed to our streamlined processes, highly adaptable team, and effective collaboration with the client.
When building our freelance team, we dove into our network of top-notch Team CSA ELA curriculum writers. We handpicked people not just for their expertise and understanding of how multilingual students learn, but also for their sharp writing skills and their eagerness to explore new tech like AI. This meant our team was perfectly geared up for all the unique twists and turns of the project!
Highlights
This project truly showcased the magic of AI! By letting the tech handle the initial brainstorming and drafting, our team zipped through the content development cycle, freeing up more precious time for strategic thinking and really letting those creative juices flow. AI became our brilliant co-pilot, sparking fresh ideas and suggesting fun, unexpected twists—like adding a dash of humor—that made the content truly shine. And don’t worry, quality remained our North Star; AI simply gave us a fantastic head start, providing a solid foundation for our human experts to perfect. As a result, our team is now more experienced and confident in leveraging AI to support their creative and technical work, and the client was very pleased with the outcome!
This client came to CSA with the idea of incorporating AI as a support to content development (and it was a smashing success!). Our ELA team is eager to explore how this valuable support can extend to other areas of projects for this client, and other ELA projects in general!
