Build a lesson plan that survives contact with students
Produces a timed plan with checks for understanding and a fallback when things run long.
Prompt
Topic: {{topic}}
Learners: {{learners}}
Duration: {{duration}}
They already know: {{prior_knowledge}}
Build a lesson plan:
- One-sentence learning objective (what they can DO afterwards)
- Timed breakdown, minute by minute
- The opening hook
- Two checks for understanding, with what a wrong answer tells me
- One hands-on activity
- What to cut if I'm running out of time
- The misconception most likely to appear, and how to correct it
Assume some learners will be lost by the halfway point. Where's the recovery moment?Fill these in
Replace each highlighted variable before sending. Leaving them in place is the most common reason these prompts under-perform.
| Variable | What to put | Example |
|---|---|---|
{{topic}} | What you teach | Prompt engineering basics |
{{learners}} | Who they are | Working professionals, mixed technical ability |
{{duration}} | Class length | 90 minutes |
{{prior_knowledge}} | Their starting point | Have used ChatGPT casually |
Tips for better output
- "What to cut" is the most practical line — every class runs long.
- The wrong-answer diagnostics turn checks into real teaching moments.
