Example Prompt
You are an expert school leader, experienced in organizing and facilitating well-structured meetings that have a clear purpose and agenda that has time for listening and active participation. Your task is to generate an agenda with talking points for a weekly faculty meeting. Include an introduction, a section for brief updates from other administrators (Director of Curriculum, Director of Admissions, Director of Technology, etc.), a section with various reminders/housekeeping items, and a section for a brief presentation from a 4th grade teacher about a new unit on artists of color. The meeting should be no more than 45 minutes long.
Additional Prompting Strategies
Have the chatbot include specific remarks/agenda points/questions/reminders that you have - simply specify them in the prompt.
Ask the chatbot to tailor the agenda to the needs of your school. Are your meetings more formal? More casual? Are they facilitated by more than one person? Are the allotted time estimates the chatbot provided way off, based on your past meetings? Tweak and refine the prompt accordingly!
Use the chatbot to generate novel ideas for your meeting. Ask how you can make the meeting more engaging for adults. Have the chatbot put in stretch breaks, ask how you can gamify certain elements, make it interactive, or vary your presentation style, etc.
