In This Episode …

  • What is Prompt Designing?
  • How to determine your AI Program for the job you need to work on
  • How to Write a Prompt
    • Persona: Identify your role
    • Aim: State your objective
    • Recipients: Specify the audience
    • Theme: Describe the style, tone, and any related parameters
    • Structure: Note the desired format of the output

Conversation Takeaways

  • Different AI tools have different features and philosophies, so it's important to explore and find the ones that work best for your needs.
  • When writing AI prompts, consider the persona (your role), aim (objective), and recipients (audience) to create effective prompts.
  • Piecemeal prompts can be more tailored to specific students or situations, while including all information in the first prompt can provide a comprehensive starting point.
  • Understanding your audience and their needs is crucial in creating successful AI prompts.
  • AI is a powerful tool, but it cannot predict the future, understand emotions, or provide a straight answer to every situation. Artificial intelligence (AI) can be used as a tool to enhance student learning and create engaging and interactive learning experiences.
  • AI prompt engineering is a method of using AI to generate prompts and content for educational purposes.
  • It is important to teach students how to use AI effectively and responsibly, and to understand its limitations.
  • AI can be used to automate certain tasks, such as generating quizzes or summarizing information, but it is not a substitute for critical thinking and creativity.
  • Educators should embrace and leverage AI in the classroom to enhance teaching and learning.
