Converted a text-only diagram into an interactive blank-filling task using POE and Canva AI

 Next, while still in Gemini, I wanted to see if the text-only diagram could be turned into an interactive, blank-filling task. Ss will read the passage about Layers of a Forest. They will then go to the diagram and fill in the 4 headings, which are the names of the 4 layers of a forest. 

MY PROMPT: 

Please now turn the above chart into a web-based, interactive, exercise for students to fill in the 4 headings. That is, the 4 headings will become blanks. Students will study the whole chart and fill in the 4 blanks. When they have finished, they should be able to see their correct and wrong answers. 

OUTPUT: 

Initially, I was still in the 'generate image' mode in Gemini. The response said it couldn't create the interactive task directly, but it gave me the HTML code for creating one. I copied the HTML code, switched to 'Canvas' mode, and pasted in the code. 

It then proceeded to generate the following interactive task:

So, Gemini succeeded. However, the visual effect was a bit dull. So I copied the same HTML code and went to Canva AI's 'Code for Me'. It then created the following interactive task for me:

which is much more visually appealing. 

===========================================

TO RE-TRACE MY PREVIOUS FEW ATTEMPTS: 

1.  In Gemini, I had the text of 'The layers of a Forest' converted to an infographic. 

2. I had Gemini change the infographic to a text-only diagram. 

3. I had Gemini Canvas convert the text-only digram to an interactive, blank-fillin, task.
