REFINE: A Structured Approach to AI Prompting for Educators

Tuesday Sep 02, 2025
AI is transforming education, but I believe strong prompts are the key to unlocking its potential.
In this episode, I share the REFINE acronym I developed to give educators a structured approach to writing effective AI prompts. I walk through each step—assigning AI a role, setting clear expectations, framing the context, specifying inclusions, defining nuance, and evaluating outputs—to show how this process keeps teachers in the driver’s seat.
Whether you’re designing lessons, assessments, or scaffolds, REFINE can help you create more effective, inclusive, and responsive learning experiences with AI.
