Storytelling has long been recognized as a powerful tool for engaging and educating audiences, and with the advancements in technology, educators now have more resources at their disposal than ever before. By combining traditional storytelling techniques with AI-powered tools and multimedia elements such as images, sounds, and texts, teachers can create dynamic and interactive stories that captivate and inspire their students. This integration of old and new storytelling tactics not only enhances the learning experience for students but also helps teachers develop their own skills in constructing compelling and innovative content. Therefore, research is essential to investigate whether these applications are useful in developing teacher’s skills in creating compelling storytelling with innovative content. The purpose of this research was to investigate the impact of AI-powered tools and technology on storytelling and the relationship between human fantasy and AI fantasy to create successful storytelling. Participants were 90 teachers enrolled in vocational diploma programs in the faculty of education at Mansoura University. Results indicated participants in the AI-Powered Storytelling Tactics groups significantly increased scores on storytelling video assignment creation and engagement with the experience, and indicated a likelihood to use AI-Powered Storytelling Tactics with their future students.
