Enriching HI with SLS

Thanks to the sharing by Feline and Estella from Assumption English School on the following SLS lesson on Sec 2 Historical Investigation field trip to the Former Ford Factory.

The Historical Investigation Field Trip Package can be found on the SLS Community Gallery here:

https://vle.learning.moe.edu.sg/community-gallery/module/view/d80585ed-b7a9-4546-97a7-fa090376c89f

Students were guided to:

✅ Describe and explain the experiences of civilians during the Japanese Occupation

✅ Empathise with those who lived through this difficult time

✅ Gather, analyse, and summarise evidence to evaluate the impact of the occupation

How SLS Supported Deeper Learning: Key Features

🧠 Interactive Thinking Tool (ITT)

Students used ITT to respond to open-ended prompts such as "How do you think civilians felt during the Japanese Occupation?" and "What values can we learn from their experiences?"

They could view peers’ responses, reflect critically, and revise their answers based on new insights — promoting collaborative and metacognitive thinking.

📊 Poll Tool with Emojis

Used to spark empathy and discussion, the poll allowed students to vote on hypothetical decisions (e.g., “Would you have resisted or complied with Japanese rule?”) and see real-time class responses.

Emojis made responses more accessible, especially for weaker or younger students, and encouraged emotional connection.

✍️ Short Answer Feedback Assistant (SAFA)

Students received instant AI-powered feedback on short-answer questions, helping them revise ideas and clarify misunderstandings.

Example prompt: “Describe the hardship faced by civilians based on what you observed today.”

🔡 Fill-in-the-Blank and MCQ

These closed-ended tools were embedded throughout the trail to reinforce content knowledge and test historical understanding.

The auto-marking function reduced cognitive load and freed students to focus on higher-order reflection.

🧭 Pictorial Instructions for Navigation

To ensure students could work independently at each station, we embedded visual guides within SLS. Arrows and image cues provided clarity on where to go and what to do next — a key feature in supporting independent learning and self-direction.

HTML interactives with ACP

One limitation of the lastest initiatives in SLS was the creation of HTML interactives with Auto copilot (ACP) does not generate score.

Thanks to Alexius, she has created this bot: https://for.edu.sg/htmlzipsls (need a chatgpt premium account for this).

If you have an html interactive file that you have included inside your lesson and you want to see if your students have interacted with it, you can use this bot to convert your html file into a zip file that will send a score to SLS. She has made a video to show how it works.

Terence used the new features in SLS to include interactives in History. Card sorting, board game, simulation-based learning and perspective taking.

Charanya shared a simple interactive that let her students explore direct proportion in different real-world scenarios.

From Lawrence. He conducted a workshop on AI generated interactives with SLS.

How to prompt AI (e.g., large language models, code generators) for simulation/activity templates. How to package and embed HTML5 interactives so they are SLS-ready (responsive, accessible, xAPI-enabled). Ways to use AI-generated interactives in SLS: tracking student data, branching logic, and adaptive feedback. Key design and technical tips: file structure, browser compatibility, performance, analytics integration. Example use-cases from physics, language learning and gamified modules.

Awesome creation by Wenxin using Authoring CoPilot (ACP) in SLS.

🎮 Building Your Own “Choose-Your-Own-Adventure” or Personality Quiz… in Under 5 Minutes!

She used ACP to turn her idea into a working HTML5 interactivee based on a tourist personality quiz based on the “Venturer” and “Dependable” traveller types.

This is what she did:

1️⃣ Used ChatGPT to generate quiz questions based on the personality traits.

2️⃣ Got it to create an auto-scoring system so the quiz could sort students into different profiles.

3️⃣ Asked it to produce a single-file HTML5 interactive prompt, complete with scoring logic, navigation, and result screens.

4️⃣ Dropped the prompt directly into ACP.

This HTML5 interactive generation feature will go live on SLS on 4 December evening after the R3 release.

Many thanks to Wenxin for sharing this!

Gemini AI

Other than using Gemini to create images, you can get the students to generate a story, a poem etc and they can click on the speaker icon to hear it being read.

https://g.co/gemini/share/ac2f66cc0673

I must say I do like the poem it generated when I entered the prompt:

Write a poem which include the ode to the sun. Positive energy which motivate one to look forward with energy glowing. Make the poem rhymes.

AI in SLS

Just learned about two more AI features in SLS.

Learning Assistant

Tried a very simple one. Wished that it will accept more than 5 pages pdf.

Create a new activity and select Interactive followed by Learning Asistant 1 to 1 (Beta)

You can choose the role which you want the AI to play and I have selected learning facilitator.

Idea generator, learning facilitator, paragraph planner, perspective builder, research assistant and role play.

Logged into my account as a student and tried out the learning assistant. Just wondering how different this will be from CHATGPT.

Pros

1. Safe platform

2. Limit number of interaction

3. Can edit the prompt

4. Can see all the students conversation and AI can analyse the common thread.

5. You can save the responses too.

I tried that with our school's learning companion and I would say I preferred our school's AI responses.

Data Assistant

I have discussed this feature earlier on ITT when I tried out this feature in ITT

Cute but not as realistic.

Having fun with Google Germini AI.

Prompt used:

A hyperrealistic photo-style miniature figurine keychain. The composition must fully show the entire body of the figurine (including both feet), without cropping or obscuring. The figurine's face is a slightly cartoonized version of an uploaded photo, retaining recognizability. The material is glossy PVC, with a realistic proportion and clear texture.The keychain is connected by a black webbing strap printed with the a globe Logo and "Mrs Lily Lee" text, which connects to a glossy metal ring, held by a person's hand, but the hand must not obstruct the figurine's feet. The background is soft-focused, with bokeh light spots of the globe Logo, in a professional product photography style.

The photo uploaded

A hyperrealistic photo-style miniature figurine keychain. The composition must fully show the entire body of the figurine (including both feet), without cropping or obscuring. The figurine's face is same as the uploaded photo, retaining recognizability. The material is glossy PVC, with a realistic proportion and clear texture.The keychain is connected by a black webbing strap printed with the a globe Logo and "Mrs Lily Lee" text, which connects to a glossy metal ring, held by a person's hand, but the hand must not obstruct the figurine's feet. The background is soft-focused, with bokeh light spots of the globe Logo, in a professional product photography style.

Using the following Prompt with Google Germini AI:

Hyper-realistic full-body portrait of the uploaded photo, standing casually against a smooth light-gray wall. The outfit is as attached. The hands is inside the pockets, left hand wears a square smartwatch, one leg casually crossed over the other, relaxed and confident posture. The lighting is a professional studio, bright yet soft, premium clarity.

On the wall beside her to the right is a bold half black-and-white and half full-color pencil vector portrait of the same subject, rendered with modern geometric accents. Beneath the graphic, add clean bold text 'Mrs Lily Lee' in large type.

Mood & Style: modern, minimalistic, premium personal-branding aesthetic, sharp contrast, sleek composition.

Created the following with the same prompt but different results as I asked for cursive font in the second picture. Image uploaded was from with the Chinese costume taken in Bangkok Shudaxia June 2025. Rather unexpected with the variations from Germini. I can only say Germini is very artistic too.

Humanities Collective

Uploaded the photo of the girl and boy from school handbook in ChatGPT.

Keyed in the prompt:

Create two 3D cartoon-style action figures as if it's displayed inside a transparent plastic blister packaging. The figures should be based on the photo, with a relaxed pose and a friendly smile. On the bottom part of the packaging, include large text that says:

"Humanities Collective" and below it: "Edgefield Secondary School"

Add some job-related accessories next to the figure, like a globe, a History book, a Geography book and a Social Studies book. The packaging design should be minimalist, with a cardboard color background and a cute toy-store vibe—clean and neatly styled like a Mattel toy. Add the Mattel logo in the top corner.

Need to upload school crest for badge so additional prompt.
