Who it is for
Anyone. Any major, any year, staff and faculty too. If you have never used AI, this is where you start. If you use it daily, this is where it starts working.
How it runs
Three hours, one room, laptops open. Short talks, then you try it. You leave with prompts you wrote and a method you can repeat.
What you leave with
A way to construct a prompt, a checklist for judging what comes back, and a certificate of completion.
Bring a laptop if you have one. We'll have spares.
