Prompting Generative Artificial Intelligence for Teaching and Learning: Planning a Conversation with GenAI

Hosted by: 
Drake Institute

Developing prompts for use with generative AI is like planning to get advice from a knowledgeable colleague. To be effective, you need to provide your context, the topic about which you are curious, and the ideal format for the response. During this interactive workshop, you will learn about the form and function of AI prompts and practice developing prompts in a teaching and learning context.

After this workshop participants will be able to:

  • describe the general purpose and function of prompts (e.g., what they do and how they work)
  • discuss the results of a prompt-a-thon in health professions education
  • list components of effective prompts 
  • evaluate prompts to aid in course design and curricular development, course design, as well as assignment creation
