Monsha’s AI-powered Slide Generator lets you quickly create engaging, customised, and standards-aligned slides from various teaching materials like web links, videos, files, and lesson objectives.

You don’t need to draft prompts or worry about formatting because Monsha manages the content and design for you.

The slides are pre-styled with multiple attractive themes available, and you can easily include supporting images.

Step 1: Access Presentation Slides

From the tools collection within your Monsha account, find and select Presentation Slides. If you're not already logged in, you’ll be prompted to sign up or log in using your email.

Step 2: Assign your presentation to a lesson (optional)

Attach your presentation to a specific course, unit, or lesson to help keep your resources organised and aligned with curriculum standards and objectives.

You can skip this step initially and assign your presentation later if you prefer.

Step 3: Provide your source materials

Monsha integrates content from multiple sources, helping you create precise, context-rich slides. Choose from the following:

  • Topics or themes: Directly type your subject (e.g., "Ancient Egypt" or "Solar System").

  • Existing Monsha resources: Reuse previous resources like worksheets, tests, or lesson plans.

  • Internet URLs: Insert links from websites, articles, or textbooks.

  • YouTube videos: Paste the video URL, and Monsha analyses the entire transcript for detailed content.

  • Uploaded files: Add documents, PowerPoints, spreadsheets, or image files.

  • Text excerpts: Paste text directly into Monsha.

  • Curriculum standards: Select standards like NGSS, CCSS, or input custom standards.

  • Lesson objectives: Automatically align slides to generated lesson objectives.

Combine multiple sources to enhance your presentation, then click Next.

Step 4: Set grade level and language

If you haven't assigned your presentation to a course, choose the grade level and language now. This ensures your slides perfectly match your students' learning needs.

Step 5: Customise your slide details

  • Number of slides: Indicate how many slides you'd like.

  • Additional instructions: Include special requests, such as focusing on certain content areas or specific slide layouts.

  • Images: Choose Yes if you'd like visual aids included.

Step 6: Apply educational frameworks (optional)

Adapt your slides further using educational frameworks:

  • Bloom’s Taxonomy levels

  • Depth of Knowledge (DOK) levels

  • Lexile reading levels

Things you can do after generating your slides

  • Edit and refine: Use Monsha’s robust editor to adjust content, add images, tables, equations, and more.

  • Quick Actions for re-generation: Instantly regenerate your slides by either typing your feedback or using Quick Actions, which help you quickly compose effective feedback for adjustments like tone, layout, or content refinement.

  • Change themes in real-time: Experiment with different visual themes and immediately preview the slides as a slideshow.

  • Differentiate presentations: Create multiple tailored versions for varied grade levels, languages, DOK, Lexile levels, or Bloom’s taxonomy.

  • Export and share: Download your slides as PPT, PDF, DOC, Google Slides, and even directly export to Canva for advanced graphic editing and customisation.

  • Generate additional resources: Create related assessments, worksheets, or lesson plans directly from your slides.
