Used Gemini to create a drag-and-drop task from a reading passage: 'The Head Prefect'

 At first, I wanted to see how well Gemini can generate a timeline from a reading passage. 

I uploaded the 'Head Prefect' passage (docx) from Open English I Unit 1 to Gemini, and asked it to generate a timeline. 

The output is not exactly a timeline, since the passage does not have a strong temporal element. Anyhow, the output is in the form of a list of fact statement about the main character, Danny Lee. The output can be exported to Google Sheets. 

Seeing that, I wanted to see if Gemini could immediately turn the 'timeline' into a drag-and-drop Sentence Completion interactive task. I then switched to 'Canvas'. 

MY PROMPT: 

Create an interactive task from the above timeline. Students will be provided with the phrases  in the third column of the timeline. They will then drag the correct  phrase to each sentence.

The resulting link works on Chrome, too.

OBSERVATIONS

1. Gemini reads WORD files too. 

2. It can turn a passage into a list of facts (about the content). 

3. This list of facts can be immediately turned into an interactive task. 

4. The generated list of facts is in third person.
