Why This Session?

Problem:

Students overuse AI → bad habits → zero growth.

Most don’t know how to talk to AI properly.

Wrong prompt = wrong learning = weak developer.
 

Goal:

Learn the language of AI.

Become a Prompt Engineer Developer, not an AI-dependent student.

Best Practices for Developers

Key Points:

• Be specific and detailed.

• Give AI a role and context.

• Include constraints and output format.

• Validate AI’s output every time.

• Break large tasks into smaller prompts.
