Practical Applications of Prompt

Catalog description

The Practical Applications of Prompt course introduces learners to generative artificial intelligence (AI). This course aims to allow learners to gain skills for writing effective prompts and develop more effective conversations with artificial intelligence. Practical Applications of Prompt will lead learners to explore why prompt engineering is necessary. The course also aims to help learners, regardless of background, increase prompt fluency, which is fluency in using prompt effectively. The course teaches learners how to create effective prompts to elicit information with consideration of scope, specificity, and context; additionally, it teaches learners to evaluate the medium of the prompt and adjust prompts to output relevant results. The last section of the course focuses on ways to evaluate the efficacy of prompts and improve the depth and quality of analytical investigations. This approach prepares students to navigate the complexities of working with generative AI and use these skills effectively throughout their careers.
