Prompt Engineering Essentials!
Details
Welcome to our 4th Skill Jam, where we learn a new skill in a low pressure community oriented way!
The Topic
AI tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, and others are rapidly changing how we learn, work, and create.
In this Skill Jam, we will explore the foundations of prompt engineering, the practice of communicating effectively with AI to get useful, accurate, and creative results.
We are going to:
- Learn why prompt engineering has become an essential skill in the age of AI
- Explore common prompting techniques such as clarity, constraints, examples, and iteration
- Discuss how different types of prompts lead to different kinds of outputs
- Look at real-world use cases of prompt engineering across work, learning, and everyday problem-solving
- Do light professional networking and get to know each other

The Audience Expectations
We love an interactive session. But we also understand that social batteries are limited. We aim to keep the session cognitively easy, while inviting you to participate in whatever way feels comfortable.
Additionally, respect and inclusion are important to us. We are all responsible for creating a fun and safe learning space.
Note: This is not a sponsored event by any of the tools we discuss.
