Improving Vague Prompts Answer Key

In this worksheet, students learn how to identify and fix vague or unclear AI prompts. Each “bad prompt” example is analyzed so students can determine what makes it weak or confusing and then rewrite it to be sharper and more specific. Through this activity, students practice analytical thinking as they refine directions for clarity, focus, and purpose. By rewriting vague instructions such as “Write about dogs,” they learn to provide necessary context and detail. This task builds communication precision and helps students understand how specificity improves AI-generated responses or written tasks in general.
