Background
Prompt Engineering for DLD's.pptxThrough a workshop learners find out about the process of prompt engineering and choose a use case that is relevant to their digital learning designer job.Â
Conversations with apprentices during coaching calls and the reviewing of GenAI created scripts, courses and assessment brought to light a problem worth solving. This provided the information I needed to ask apprentices to write a prompt for a use case and revealed a clear gap that apprentices were using generic prompts and producing generic outputs.
The session focuses on using facilitation and the whole part method to help apprentices find out about the prompt process while learning about a robust framework to structure prompts more effectively for digital learning design.

The design and development process
Needs analysis: I used a survey to gauge the learners' use of GenAI to get a baseline of their familiarity with using tools such as ChatGPT for their job role. Also, to gauge their knowledge of the prompting process and ability to write a prompt, I gave them a scenario and asked them to write a prompt, which revealed a clear gap in their approach and knowledge of prompt engineering.
Session Design: For a live session with adults, I use my whole-to-parts GPT that helps with rapid development. I decided to start the warm-up with a game to set the tone and leverage social learning so peers could discuss their prior knowledge and experiences of AI. Additionally, the session used the whole-to-parts approach to break down the framework and provide ample time to choose a use case, write a prompt, and receive feedback. In these sessions, and in my experience, less is more.
AI Use cases: I created a Google Sheets document with use cases to help with creativity and to suggest some prompts a Digital Learning designer could use. This also allowed for instant feedback and monitoring during the session.
After the session: I created a memory aid to use after the session and encourage retrieval practice of the key components of the framework.

Session Feedback
The session received positive feedback from the audience. In terms of achieving my goals, I felt that the comments showed the session had a good impact on their ability to write structured prompts. Additionally, during my assessment in the lesson, the difference between the first and second prompts using the CIDI framework produced much more effective prompts for digital learning design.
