AI for students lesson 13: Improving a weak prompt · Set 184 · 40 questions
TalentJR

AI tip (Add what is missing): Good fixes: name the exact topic, add your class level, say the format, add a word limit, give an example, say what it is for, ask for steps, split a big request into small ones. Not fixes: capitals, exclamation marks, lots of emojis, unrelated details, making it vaguer, typing it twice. Too hard → add your level. Too long → add a word limit. Wrong shape → say the format.
