What this film shows
Late at night in a university library, a student sits with an essay due and a doubt on her face. A lecturer pushes a thick handbook aside. On the bus she watches a lesson on her phone, with a real decision in it: an AI tool offers to rewrite her weakest paragraph. At the next deadline she checks the course's rule, says what she used and closes her laptop.
Sample · Made with Coursento AI · People and places are fictional
What this film shows
An accounting syllabus and one sentence become a plan of three lessons, which the lecturer approves before anything is made. The crew writes and reviews, a filmed lesson appears, then a practice decision on a journal entry and an AI tutor that cites the scene. The course is published in two languages, exported, and tracked by faculty, shown with sample data.
Sample · AI presenter · People and places are fictional
What this film shows
An AI presenter speaks from a campus courtyard, a lecture theatre and a library about lecturers short of time and Arabic material that is hard to find, with the 0.6% figure on screen, a lesson frame, and what you keep: SCORM and cmi5, MP4, certificates and completion records.
The industry today
One lecturer, two classrooms and a new question
Every university now teaches in two places: the lecture hall and the course page. A lecturer plans a semester with a syllabus and a slide deck, then gets asked for online modules, a flipped week and an orientation on top of a full timetable and research. A teaching and learning centre may have a handful of instructional designers for hundreds of courses, so many modules go online as a recorded lecture and a PDF, and students leave them halfway.
Generative AI has added a harder question. First-year students arrive unsure what counts as their own work, and the rule can change from one course to the next. Faculty need to understand these tools before they can set fair limits, and a one-hour workshop rarely reaches the adjunct who teaches on Tuesday evenings. In the Gulf there is more: good Arabic material is scarce, the UAE has made AI a school subject, and national regulators set their own e-learning standards.

- On average across OECD education systems, about one in three teachers (36%) used AI in their work in 2024. It varies widely: about 75% in the UAE and Singapore.OECD, Results from TALIS 2024 (published Oct 2025)

Where training breaks
What makes this hard, and what changes
The problem
A lecturer has a syllabus and a full timetable, and your instructional designers have a queue.
With Coursento
Upload the syllabus or talk it through. Every lesson, the look and the cost appear on one card, and nothing is written until the lecturer says yes.
The problem
Students leave recorded lectures halfway.
With Coursento
Every explaining scene is directed and narrated, with practice in each lesson. Course insights show where students drop off and which questions they miss.
The problem
Students get stuck at midnight, when a chatbot will simply hand them the answer.
With Coursento
The AI tutor answers from the course, cites the scene and never gives away a graded answer while a quiz is open. It works in Coursento, not inside packages or offline copies.
The problem
Good Arabic material is scarce, and translating a module is a project of its own.
With Coursento
Create in Arabic from the start, or make a translated copy that is re-voiced and re-animated, with right-to-left built in.
How it works
From your document to a course
Help faculty turn syllabi and lecture slides into filmed, interactive lessons with knowledge checks and an AI tutor, in English and Arabic, published in Coursento or exported to your LMS.
What you bring
- Syllabi and course outlines
- Lecture slides and notes
- Academic integrity and assessment policies
- Student handbooks
- Lab and safety procedures
Build from your own syllabi, slides and notes, and only material you hold the rights to. Keep student records, grades and submissions out of your sources.

Questions
Does the lecturer stay in charge?
Yes. The lecturer approves the plan and its cost before any lesson is written, and nothing is published until they say so. Published versions never change; an edit starts a new version.
Will it work with our LMS?
Courses export as SCORM or cmi5, and as MP4. LTI launch is in beta and validation against real LMSs is in progress, so test one in yours before you commit. SCORM or cmi5 packages in your LMS, or MP4 files, need no Coursento account.
Does this cover our licensing or accreditation?
No. Coursento holds no licence or accreditation, and what your programmes must meet for NELC, ETEC, CAA or KHDA stays with you and your quality office.
