Starter prompt

Copy it, fill in the parts in square brackets, and paste it into the AI assistant your organisation allows.

Using only the chapter extracts below from our [subject] material for Class [grade], write [number] questions in this pattern: [MCQ/short answer/long answer with marks]. Tag each question with chapter, topic, difficulty (easy/medium/hard) and the source page. For MCQs give four options and mark the answer. Do not use any fact that is not in the extracts. If the extracts cannot support a question type, say so. Extracts: [retrieved sections]

  1. 1

    Load your material

    Load your chapters or notes into a tool that searches documents, labelled by chapter and page.

  2. 2

    Generate by chapter

    Run the prompt one chapter at a time. Check that the source pages actually contain the answer.

  3. 3

    Review and tag

    A subject teacher reviews each question, fixes the difficulty tag and removes duplicates.

  4. 4

    Store in a sheet

    Save approved questions in a spreadsheet with their tags so you can build papers quickly.

Watch out. Retrieval can pull the wrong page and the model may fill gaps with outside facts. Check every answer against the cited page before a question enters the bank.

What you end up with

A tagged question bank drawn only from your own material, with source pages.
