AI Prompt Engineering
Learn how to communicate effectively with AI to get better results for your learning
Bilingual Learning Notes
Core Principles
Provide detailed context and clear instructions. Avoid ambiguity.
Example: Instead of "Tell me about math," try "Explain the Pythagorean theorem with examples for 8th grade students"
Tell the AI what role to adopt for better context.
Example: Act as a patient math tutor explaining fractions to a 10-year-old student.
Divide complex questions into smaller, manageable parts.
Example: Step 1: Define photosynthesis. Step 2: Explain each stage. Step 3: Give real-world examples.
Show the AI what format or style you want.
Example: Create a quiz like this: Question 1: [Multiple choice]. Question 2: [Short answer].
Follow up and refine your prompts based on responses.
Example: That's good, but can you make it simpler for beginners? Add more visual examples.
Pro Tips
- • Set constraints: Specify word count, format, or complexity level
- • Ask for explanations: Request step-by-step breakdowns
- • Request multiple options: "Give me 3 different ways to solve this"
- • Use positive framing: Say what you want, not what you don't want
- • Provide context: Mention your current knowledge level and learning goals
