Glossary of Key Terms

TEACH Framework: A structured approach to prompt engineering for educators: Tone and persona, Explicit task, Arrangement of output, Context and constraints, Higher level refinements.Framework
Zero-shot Prompting: Asking an AI to perform a task without providing any examples.Technique
Few-shot Prompting: Providing one or more examples before asking an AI to perform a similar task.Technique
Chain-of-Thought Prompting: Encouraging the AI to break down its reasoning process step by step.Technique
Role-Based Prompting: Asking the AI to assume a specific persona or character when responding.Technique
Tone and Persona: Setting the right voice and character of the AI response (the "T" in TEACH).Framework Component
Explicit Task: Clearly defining what you want the AI to do (the "E" in TEACH).Framework Component
Arrangement of Output: Specifying how you want the response formatted (the "A" in TEACH).Framework Component
Context and Constraints: Providing background information and limitations (the "C" in TEACH).Framework Component
Higher Level Refinements: Fine-tuning to improve the quality of responses (the "H" in TEACH).Framework Component
Prompt Engineering: The practice of crafting effective prompts to get desired responses from AI systems.General
