Using a good framework like the CLEAR one from Lo (2023):
Concise |
Logical |
Explicit |
Adaptive |
Reflective |
Focus on the key words of the AI tools to analyse |
Present your query in a logical or natural order
AI tools look for relationships between words, so you need to make sure that your prompt accurately represents the relationship you are looking for |
Be clear in WHAT you want the output of the AI tool to be
Eg. Do you want a summary, what style or tone do you want, what level of information do you need? |
Adapt your prompt with keywords or topics suggested from the AI in its first answer
Investigate different settings of the AI tools, use follow up prompts |
Always reflect on the answer – does it make sense? Is it current or does it seem outdated?
Do you think there is any misinformation in the answer? |
