Build the Workflow

Work through the explanation, apply it to the example, and complete the quick check before continuing.

Workflow canvas showing the six fields to define every stage, a prompt checklist for generative stages, and a real handoff gate before publication or action.
Define each workflow stage with input, method or tool, output, review criterion, owner, and stop condition; then give reviewers evidence, criteria, time, authority, and the ability to revise, reject, or stop.
Text description of the visual

The figure shows a workflow canvas for the capstone. The stage record asks learners to repeat six fields for every workflow stage: input, method or tool, output, review criterion, owner, and stop condition. A separate prompt checklist applies only when a stage uses generative AI to draft text, and includes outcome, audience, authorised sources, constraints, missing-information rule, format, and review criteria. The handoff section shows that before publication or action, the reviewer must receive evidence, criteria, enough time, and authority, and must be able to revise, reject, or stop the workflow. The final reminder says that human decisions come before publication or action, and owners can pause at stop conditions.

Use the workflow table to define each stage:

  • Input.
  • Method or tool.
  • Output.
  • Review criterion.
  • Owner.
  • Stop condition.

Write the task specification or prompt for any generative stage. Include outcome, audience, authorised sources, constraints, missing-information rule, format, and review criteria.

Put human decisions before publication or action. Handoffs must be real: the reviewer receives evidence, criteria, time, authority, and the ability to revise, reject, or stop.
