TDLS 2025 - Prompt Essentials for Educators

TDLS

You will learn the difference between a good prompt and a great prompt, so you can work faster and smarter with gen AI at your side, I will share practical examples of where you can use Gen AI at school and help you get the most out of it. You'll learn when and how to use Gen AI by designing better prompts to get the best results. So what is prompting anyway? Put simply prompting is the process of providing specific instructions to a gen AI tool to receive new information or to achieve a desired outcome on a task. Those instructions are called prompts. When we write a prompt for a gen AI tool, we give it a series of inputs and tell it what we would like it to generate. Some gen AI tools can generate text or images while others generate video, audio, or even code. Prompting is both an art and a science. To get the best results, we need to be precise in defining what we need. In this workshop, you will become a better prompter for both you and your students.
