Prompt Engineering for Educators - Mastering Advanced Prompt

Move past basic prompting and build reusable, reliable prompt systems for planning, rubrics, and differentiation
What you'll learn

---

The core anatomy of an advanced prompt: role, context, task, format, constraints
Chain-of-Thought prompting for multi-step reasoning tasks
Prompt templates for instant differentiation and scaffolding
Role-based and persona prompting for subject-specific tutoring
Prompt chains that build and apply grading rubrics
Requirements

---

Basic familiarity with a generative AI tool (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or similar)
Completion of a foundational AI-for-educators course, or equivalent experience
No coding or technical background required
Description

---

This course contains the use of artificial intelligence.
Most educators who use AI are stuck at the same level - typing a request, getting a vague answer, and rewriting it three or four times hoping for something usable. That's not a tool problem. It's a structure problem. This course takes you past casual prompting into the actual architecture behind advanced AI outputs: Chain-of-Thought reasoning, role-based personas, multi-step prompt chains, and rubric-building sequences you can reuse every week.
You won't just learn theory here. Every module follows a five-stage progression - Learn, Examine, Analyze, Decide, Demonstrate - so you're applying each technique to real classroom tasks as you go: differentiated reading materials, automated feedback, subject-expert tutoring personas, and assessment design that actually holds up under scrutiny.
By the time you finish, you won't be guessing at prompts anymore. You'll have a personal library of tested, reusable templates - and the diagnostic skill to fix a prompt the moment it stops working. This is the course that turns "I use AI sometimes" into "I have a system."
