Assessing the Potential of Laboratory Instructional Tool through Synthesia AI: A Case Study on Student Learning Outcome
Jacqueline Joseph1.
This research study aims to investigate the effectiveness of utilizing
Synthesia Artificial Intelligence (AI), an advanced instructional tool, in
enhancing laboratory experiments. The research focused on evaluating the
impact of incorporating Synthesia AI as a supplementary learning resource
on student learning outcomes in laboratory settings. Synthesia AI is a
cutting-edge technology that revolutionizes students’ immersive learning
experience. With its advanced machine learning algorithms, Synthesia
AI can generate photorealistic video content featuring virtual actors and
presenters that can be programmed to speak in multiple languages, accents,
and even emotional tones. In this study, an instructional-based laboratory
experiment was conducted using Synthesia AI. The participants were from
the Sabah Branch of UiTM, and enrolled in a Basic Plant Science laboratory
course under the Pre-Diploma Agrotechnology programme. The course was
divided into two groups, an experimental group and a control group. The
experimental group received laboratory instructions through Synthesia AI
videos, while the control group received traditional laboratory instructions.
The quantitative data were collected through pre and post-tests to assess the
student’s learning outcomes. The qualitative data were obtained through a
survey containing open-ended questions to gather the students’ feedback
on their experience with Synthesia AI videos. The experimental group,
which received laboratory instructions through Synthesia AI videos, was
expected to perform better in the post-test than the control group. The
findings of this research have provided valuable insights into the potential
benefits and challenges of integrating Synthesi IO as an instructional tool,
6
thereby contributing to the enhancement of laboratory-based instruction.
With its ability to create realistic virtual simulations, Synthesia AI could
significantly enhance laboratory education, allowing for more cost-effective,
innovative and accessible teaching methods, and ultimately empowering
the next generation of scientists and innovators.
