Prompting and AI Workflow Design

Module 06 Activity

Activity ID: PAW-M06-A01 Estimated active time: 35-45 minutes

Purpose

Two specific improvements to one prompt, measured. The point is to find out which of the two closed the gap, because that is what transfers to the next prompt.

Steps

  1. Choose a prompt whose output you always edit in the same way. That repeated edit is the target.
  2. Add exactly one example, with a line saying what to match and what to ignore.
  3. Write a five-criterion rubric with weak, acceptable and strong levels.
  4. Run three versions: original, plus example, plus example and rubric.
  5. Score all three against the rubric.
  6. Decide which addition did the work, and whether the repeated edit is gone.
