From Notes to an Eight-Slide Deck | Follow-Along Exercise

Ce que vous allez créer

A text deliverable that fits the task, a fact-check sheet and a reusable prompt.

Ce qu’il vous faut

• A chat, image or video tool suited to the task (PromptKite does not provide model credits)
• Your own input materials and a folder for saving results

Étapes

1. Define the inputs for this exercise

   The demo inputs for this exercise are: Topic: project retrospective; Audience: team colleagues; Material: Fictional project: the goal is to launch a beginner tutorial; 3 user interviews, 1 article draft and 2 sample images are done; not yet published, so there is no readership or conversion data. The open issue is that the mobile layout hasn't been checked; it will be published next week after the check. First confirm whether these conditions fit your situation; replace “paste your material” in the example with real material. Write the goal as a deliverable you can check against.

2. Run it once for your scenario

   Replace the placeholder material in the example with real material you can provide, then give the complete prompt to a chat tool. Redact personal or business information as needed first; if the model asks about missing facts, supply the material rather than asking it to make things up. Focus of this task: give each slide a title, a one-sentence takeaway, up to three key points, a suitable chart type and brief speaker notes.

3. Check against the criteria and revise

   Check the output against the input: “Can each takeaway be traced back to the material? Do the charts have real data sources?” Tag each conclusion with its supporting material; move anything unsupported to a “to be confirmed” section. Pick one wording or structural problem to fix and compare the old and new versions, rather than just asking for it to be “more professional.”

4. Save and review

   Save the final result, the prompt, the source of your input material and one reason for a change. Name files with the date plus the task name; save reusable versions to your PromptKite Prompt Pocket. Next time, change one condition and try again, noting whether the result still holds.

Pièges fréquents

• The input is still placeholder text, so the output looks empty — Replace placeholders such as “paste your material” in the example with real material; state clearly that missing facts are unknown instead of asking the model to fill them in.
• The result doesn't meet the standard for this scenario — Check the output against the input: “Can each takeaway be traced back to the material? Do the charts have real data sources?” Tag each conclusion with its supporting material; move anything unsupported to a “to be confirmed” section. Pick one wording or structural problem to fix and compare the old and new versions, rather than just asking for it to be “more professional.”

Modèle d’exercice

Using only the following material (Fictional project: the goal is to launch a beginner tutorial; 3 user interviews, 1 article draft and 2 sample images are done; not yet published, so there is no readership or conversion data. The open issue is that the mobile layout hasn't been checked; it will be published next week after the check), create an eight-slide presentation outline about {subject} for team colleagues. Give each slide a title, a one-sentence takeaway, up to three key points, a suitable chart type and brief speaker notes. Order the content as: background, goals, method, progress, evidence, issues, plan, discussion. Where data is missing, write “to be added” instead of inventing numbers or citations; any suggested chart must state what data it needs. Also suggest a consistent type hierarchy, color palette and white space, and output slide-by-slide text that can be copied into a presentation tool.
