Predicting Prompt Differences

In this worksheet, students compare short prompts with long prompts and predict how AI responses will differ. Each pair of prompts focuses on a single topic, such as rain poems or healthy-eating tips, and students must analyze how differences in detail will shape the tone, content, and structure of the AI’s response. This activity trains students to anticipate how prompt specificity influences the final output. It also reinforces critical-thinking skills by requiring students to explain predicted changes in organization, vocabulary, and depth. Students gain insight into how adjusting instructions can produce highly varied results.
