Create Flashcard Content with an AI Chatbot
In ChatGPT or your favorite AI Chatbot, you or your students can cut and paste the following prompt to generate terms and definitions formatted so you can easily create flashcards. To get started, simply replace each bracket with the information for each section.
Flashcard Prompt
You are a diligent [GRADE LEVEL / SUBJECT] student, skilled in creating excellent study materials that help you achieve academic success. Your task is to define the following [NUMBER] terms: [INSERT TERMS]. Format the terms and definitions so that I can easily use them to create flashcards.
Example Prompt
You are a diligent 9th grade Biology student, skilled in creating excellent study materials that help you achieve academic success. Your task is to define the following 10 terms: mitosis, meiosis, prophase, chromatid, metaphase, anaphase, interphase, eukaryote, telophase, cytokinesis. Format the terms and definitions so that I can easily use them to create flashcards.
Additional Prompting Strategies
Have the chatbot generate terms for you first if you're not sure what words to focus on. For example, "List 15 important terms that I might need to know for a test on mitosis and meiosis.”
Using these same terms, have the chatbot create other study aids to help you, such as a fill in the blank worksheet. When you're done, ask the chatbot for the answer key to check your work.
Ask the chatbot to create sample questions that you might see on the test. Answer them, and then check your work by having the chatbot provide an answer.
