Entering the World of Prompt Engineering
Prompt is…
● A prompt is a question or statement given to a chatbot to generate responses.

5

9
What is Prompt Engineering?
● The technique of presenting your
instructions clearly.

● Design and refine the input provided

to the generative AI models.

● Goal: Improve the performance by “Good prompt leads to good response”

providing well-structured input.

10
Scenario: History Teacher
● You want your students to understand the significance
of the Industrial Revolution.

● Traditional prompt:

Write an essay about the Industrial Revolution.

11
Engineered Prompt: More Engaging and Thought-provoking

Write an essay about the Industrial Revolution.

Imagine you are a newspaper reporter in the 19th century,

witnessing the Industrial Revolution. Write a piece of news
article that captures the transformative changes in society,
economy, and technology, and discuss the potential
impacts on future generations.

12
2. Prompt Designer:
Basic Principles of Prompts
Principles of Well-defined Prompts
● Clarity:
A clear and concise prompt will help to ensure that the ChatGPT understands
the topic or task at hand and is able to generate an appropriate response.

● Focus:
A well-defined prompt should have a clear purpose and focus, helping to guide
the conversation and keep it on track.

● Relevance:
Make sure that your prompts are relevant to
the user and the conversation.
14
Good Example
● Clear and Specific: making it easy for the ChatGPT to understand.
● Specific location (Hong Kong) and type of food (vegetarian), helps to ensure that
the response is relevant and focused.

What are the best restaurants in Hong Kong that

serve vegetarian food? I'm planning a trip to Hong
Kong and I'm looking for some good places to eat.

15
Bad Example
● Jargon (e.g. “intel”, “interwebz”, “zeitgeist”): Confusing or unclear to users who
are not familiar with these terms.
● “latest happenings” is ambiguous, difficult for the ChatGPT to understand and
generate a useful response.

Hey there! Can you give me some intel on the latest

happenings in the interwebz? I'm trying to get a
handle on the zeitgeist.

16
Five-step Process for a. Define the

focus of the
conversation

b. Be specific
e. Refine and

d. Use explicit c. Provide

constraints context and
and background
guidelines information

17
(A) Define the Purpose and Focus of the Conversation
● Goal:
○ Provide information?
○ Answer a question?
○ Engage in casual conversation?

● Example:

I want to keep fit. Give me an exercise plan.

18
(B) Use Specific and Relevant Language
● Ensure AI understands your prompt and generate an appropriate response.
● Clear and concise, using language that is relevant.
● Example:
I want to keep fit and build muscle.
Give me a weekly exercise plan with cardiovascular
exercises, strength training and stretching sections.

19
(C) Provide Context and Background Information
● Example:

I want to keep fit and build muscle.

I am a 30-year-old man. My body fat is 20%. I am a beginner at the gym.
Give me a weekly exercise plan with cardiovascular exercises(e.g.
running), strength training (e.g. squat) and stretching sections.
Please also consider my neck pain and make sure it doesn't worsen my
injury.

20
(D) Use Explicit Constraints and Guidelines
● “Please explain in simple, non-technical language.”
● Example:
I want to keep fit and build muscle.
I am a 30-year-old man. My body fat is 20%. I am a beginner at the gym.
Give me a weekly exercise plan (5 days per week, 1 hour per day) with
cardiovascular exercises (e.g. running), strength training (e.g. squat) and
stretching sections. Please also consider my neck pain and make sure it
doesn‘t worsen my injury.
Please provide two different levels of each exercise.

21
(E) Refine and Test
● AI model learns from patterns in data and doesn't understand the world in the
same way humans do.
● Evaluate the response, tweak the prompt to improve the outcome.
● You don’t need to rewrite the entire prompt again!
Instead, you can say:

Make it a table format. Reduce cardio, add more stretching.

Prompting Techniques
1. Instructions prompting

2. Role prompting

3. Contextual prompting

4. One-shot and few-shot prompting

5. Chain of Thought (CoT) prompting

6. Combination prompting
27
Technique 1: Instructions Prompting
● Be clear and direct with your instructions to the AI.

● Prompt formula: Generate [task] following these instructions: [instructions]

● For example, a teacher might use the instruction prompt:

Generate a list of five discussion questions for a
high school class reading ‘To Kill a Mockingbird’.

28
Technique 2: Role Prompting
● Assign the AI a specific role

I want you to act as a spoken English teacher and improver. I

will speak to you in English and you will reply to me in English
to practice my spoken English...I want you to strictly correct my
grammar mistakes, typos, and factual errors…

● You may try it without or with the role to see the different responses.

29
Technique 3: Contextual Prompting
● Provide more background information

Write a lesson plan on the topic of electric circuits in General Studies.

The lesson should use the approach of inquiry-based learning, and deliver
the knowledge of (1) safety of using electricity, (2) positive and negative pole
of battery and the correct installation, (3) closed and open circuit, (4)
conductors and insulators and their conductivity, (5) purpose of resistors,
and (6) series and parallel circuits. State the time used in each activity.

30
Technique 4: One-shot / Few-shot Prompting

● Prompt formula: [prompt] + One example

Generate 8 possible names for my new dog.

Use “Example 1: A dog name is Peach”.

● Prompt formula: [prompt] + More than 2 examples

Generate 8 possible names for my new dog.
Dog names that I like include:
– Peach
– Kiwi
– Pineapple
31
Technique 5: Chain of Thought (CoT) Prompting

● Encourage the LLM to explain its reasoning.

● Decompose multi-step problems into intermediate steps.

● Add “Let’s think step by step” at the end = extract more accurate answers.

32
33
Farmer John had 93 chickens. If he sold 20 to
Farmer Bill and bought twice that number
more, how many chickens does Farmer John
have now?

73

34
 Farmer John had 93 chickens. If he sold 20 to
Farmer Bill and bought twice that number
more, how many chickens does Farmer John
have now?
Let’s think step by step.

Sure, let's break down the problem step by step.

1. Farmer John starts with 93 chickens.
2. He sells 20 chickens to Farmer Bill. This means he now has 93 - 20 = 73 chickens.
3. Farmer John buys twice the number of chickens he sold to Farmer Bill, which is 2 * 20
= 40 chickens.
4. Adding the newly purchased chickens to the remaining chickens, Farmer John now
has 73 + 40 = 113 chickens.
Therefore, Farmer John currently has 113 chickens. 35
Technique 6: Combination Prompting
● Integrate various prompting techniques:
e.g. Role Prompting + Contextual Prompting

I want you to act as a personal trainer, who can create customized fitness
programs, provide exercise instructions, and offer guidance on healthy
lifestyle choices. Assess my current fitness level, goals, and preferences to
develop a tailored workout plan that includes strength training,
cardiovascular exercises, and flexibility routines. Share tips on proper
exercise form, injury prevention, and progressive overload to ensure
continuous improvement. Offer advice on nutrition, hydration, and rest to
support my overall well-being. My first request is ‘Design a 4-week workout
plan for me to improve my overall strength and endurance, considering my
limited access to gym equipment.’ 36

運商要有這樣的高度從這樣的角度去做好整個郵輪碼頭的營運 和郵輪公司在資訊和溝通上有待加強。
SPEAKER_00 [01:45.000 -> 02:09.120] 見到問題不夠的士、不夠車或巴士上車的旅客不懂得付款這些問題是否可以 4.往日郵輪公司和碼頭應預見上岸人流,預早告知
預視到很早就應該會知道呢?你說到無論是政府、郵輪碼頭以至船公司之間的溝通似乎是否遲了呢?如果發生了問題才
再開會去談的話究竟是否預先他們的部署做得不好呢? 安排,分批上岸可紓緩擠塞。
