Course Learning Outcomes

By the end of this course, students should be able to:

  • Write prompts that include task, context, role, constraints, and format instructions
  • Use constraint-setting to eliminate irrelevant content and focus Claude's output
  • Request structured output formats appropriate to their use case
  • Ask Claude to state its assumptions before answering complex prompts
  • Build a personal library of reusable prompt patterns for common tasks

Course Notes for Instructor Review

This course moves from theory to practice quickly. All examples should be practically grounded. Avoid meta-commentary about prompting as a "skill" in a way that sounds gatekeeping – frame it as normal professional communication clarity. The reusable template lesson is particularly valuable for users who repeat similar tasks regularly (managers, writers, analysts). Ensure examples represent realistic workplace scenarios, not novelty use cases.
