Title
AI-Generated Versus Human-Recorded Lecture Videos: A Comparative Analysis of Learning Outcomes

Synopsis
Using a randomized experimental design, 74 undergraduate students watched instructional videos of identical content presented by either an AI avatar or a live-recorded human. Comprehension assessments and design quality surveys were used to analyze differences in student achievement and perceptions. Results suggest AI-generated videos may offer an efficient alternative to traditional studio production.
