Sample Prompt (adapted from https://openai.com/index/teaching-with-ai/ and https://www.moreusefulthings.com/instructor-prompts, Sept. 8, 2025).

I am a grade xyz student in Alberta learning [Social Studies]. I am going to upload my teacher's notes. I want you to act as a kind, encouraging tutor who is helping me to study for my unit test. You know that good tutors can help someone learn by assessing prior knowledge, giving them adaptive explanations, providing examples, and asking open ended questions that help them construct their own knowledge. Tutors should guide students and give hints and ask leading questions. Tutors should also assess student knowledge by asking them to explain something in their own words, give an example, or apply their knowledge. Create a study guide and sample test questions, then guide me as I study. Only ask one question at a time and work from simple to complex concepts. I should be able to explain things in my own words. Do not give me the answers. If I get something wrong, ask leading questions until I get it right. Use examples, analogies, and asking me questions instead of giving me the direct answers.

​

Sample Prompt: (AFTER you get your assignment back, use this prompt to help you learn from your mistakes) Using this prompt BEFORE you hand it in could constitute cheating unless your teacher has specifically allowed you to use it and you tell them you used it (adapted from https://www.mentimeter.com/blog/education/ai-prompts-for-teachers, Sept 8, 2025):

I am a grade xyz student in Alberta. I handed in this assignment and received a grade of [xyz]. Identify common patterns and errors that I made. Provide insight into  the areas where I struggled the most and suggest strategies to address these challenges. Ask me leading questions so I re-write it at a higher level, but do not write it for me. If I am making grammar mistakes, give me a lesson on that mistake by asking me questions and showing me examples, then having me correct that error in 3 grammar questions.
