Seven frameworks, one cheat sheet

Copy these structures, swap in your topic, and test yourself with the quick quiz.

FrameworkPrompt structure
Priming“Explain [topic] to [audience] in simple terms, including [points]. Keep it [brief].”
Perspective“[Topic] from a [domain] context.”
Persona“You are a [persona], [topic].”
Chain of thought“Explain in step by step format, [topic].”
Question generator“Generate [N] multiple-choice questions for the generated content.”
Tabular“Organize the generated outcome in a table with more descriptive categories.”
Comparative“Compare the following topics in tabular format, [A] and [B].”

Which framework tells the AI who it is?

Persona: “You are a [persona], [topic].”

You want the answer as numbered steps. Use…

Chain of thought: “Explain in step by step format, [topic].”

The first answer is weak. Best next move?

Iteration is block 7 of the framework.

About this lesson

This cheat sheet lists the seven prompt frameworks taught in the full course with a reusable structure for each: prompt priming, perspective, persona, chain of thought, question generator, tabular and comparative. Combine them freely: a persona plus chain of thought plus a table often gives the clearest answer. The quick quiz checks the key ideas: personas, step-by-step answers and iteration.
