Rebuild your workshop slides around how people really learn
It finds every stretch where people only listen and turns it into a moment where they recall, try or explain.
Published . Steps as of October 2026.
How can I make my workshop slides more engaging and memorable?
Upload your deck to an AI and ask it to swap long listening stretches for recall questions, worked examples and short practice tasks. Claude fits best when you want the edited deck back as a PowerPoint file, which works on every plan as of October 2026. ChatGPT or Gemini work well for the slide-by-slide change list you then apply yourself. Add your own teaching guide if you have one, so the changes follow methods you already trust.

Your prompt
Fill in your details. Skip any you like.
Claude and ChatGPT open with your prompt already typed in. Gemini can't be filled in from a link, so its button copies your prompt: paste it into the new chat.
The prompt that gets copied
Attached is my workshop deck for [YOUR AUDIENCE, e.g. new managers at small firms]. The session runs [SESSION LENGTH, e.g. 90 minutes]. If I've attached a teaching guide, follow it. If not, use well-tested learning methods: recall practice, worked examples, spacing, and asking people to explain ideas in their own words. 1. Go through the deck and mark every stretch of three or more slides where people only listen. 2. For each one, suggest one change: a quick recall question, a worked example, a two-minute practice task, or a turn-and-explain moment. Keep my content and voice. 3. Add a short recap slide that asks people to recall the key points from memory, not reread them. 4. Show me a change list first, slide by slide, with the extra minutes each change adds so we stay within the session length. 5. After I approve, make the updated deck as a PowerPoint file.
Upload your workshop deck and, if you like, a guide to teaching methods you trust. Claude adds recall questions, worked examples and practice moments slide by slide and hands back an edited deck.
