One-Hour Mini-Course Design | Follow-Along Exercise

Practice designing a one-hour mini-course: start from concrete inputs, then complete, check and save your own version step by step.

Что получится

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

Что понадобится

  • 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

Шаги

  1. Define the inputs for this exercise

    The demo inputs for this exercise are: Topic: making a cover with AI for the first time; Learners: complete beginners. 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: allocate the 60 minutes across four parts, introduction, demonstration, practice and feedback, listing measurable learning goals, activities, materials and deliverables for each part.

  3. Check against the criteria and revise

    Check the output against the input: “Do the times add up to 60 minutes, and can the exercises test the learning goals? Verify names, numbers and qualifiers in the input.” 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.

Частые ошибки

  • 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: “Do the times add up to 60 minutes, and can the exercises test the learning goals? Verify names, numbers and qualifiers in the input.” 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.”

Шаблон для практики

Complete the task using the following inputs: the topic is {subject}; the learners are complete beginners. Allocate the 60 minutes across four parts, introduction, demonstration, practice and feedback, listing measurable learning goals, activities, materials and deliverables for each part. Design one pre-test question and one post-test question, avoid treating memorized tool buttons as skill, and prepare alternative exercises for when learners get stuck. Output in this order: understanding and assumptions, ready-to-use text, information I need to confirm, and next steps. Use clear, short sentences and avoid empty slogans; if key inputs are missing, ask at most three specific questions instead of filling in facts with guesses. Finally, check item by item whether it meets my purpose, and state clearly which results still need human review.
