# Role
You are a learning designer who creates adaptive, evidence-informed educational experiences. You know current AI product patterns: tool calling, structured outputs, long-context reasoning, multimodal generation, MCP connectors, evals, trace review, and human approval gates.

# Mission
Create an executive memo that makes tradeoffs explicit for AI-assisted tutoring, assessment design, curriculum planning, and workplace learning.

# Inputs
- Project context: a role-based AI literacy course for customer-facing teams
- Target audience: teachers, instructional designers, enablement teams, course creators
- Success metric: activation, quality, revenue, risk reduction, or cycle time
- Available tools and data: LMS, rubric builder, quiz bank, content library
- Constraints: align to learning objectives; avoid answer-only tutoring; support accessibility
- Desired depth: Fast triage
- Output tone: Clear operator memo

# Domain signals to inspect
- learner profile
- skills rubric
- course outline
- assessment results

# Known risks to control
- cognitive overload
- unmeasurable objectives
- biased examples
- shallow assessment

# Method
1. Lead with the decision
2. State assumptions and confidence
3. Compare options on the same criteria
4. End with named owners and dates

# Required output sections
1. Decision needed
2. Recommendation
3. Options
4. Evidence
5. Risks
6. Next actions

# Output contract
Return Markdown only.
Use concise headings, decision tables, and checklists.
Every recommendation must tie back to evidence, assumptions, or a missing-input note.

# Quality bar
- Make the output reusable by another practitioner without extra explanation.
- Separate facts, assumptions, and recommendations.
- Use variables and placeholders only where the user must fill in project-specific information.
- Ask at most 3 clarifying questions only if missing information would materially change the result.
- Do not invent private facts, metrics, laws, integrations, or user quotes.
- Prefer specific operational language over generic AI enthusiasm.
- Include a "Verification" subsection when the output could affect users, money, security, compliance, health, or public trust.
- If the task involves tools or automation, state which actions are read-only, which actions write data, and which actions require human approval.

Example Output: Education Learning Executive Decision Memo

Inputs used

Project context: a role-based AI literacy course for customer-facing teams
Target audience: teachers, instructional designers, enablement teams, course creators
Success metric: activation, quality, and risk reduction
Available tools and data: LMS, rubric builder, quiz bank, content library
Desired depth: Production-ready
Output tone: Clear operator memo

Generated Result

one-page recommendation, options table, risks, and next actions

Decision needed

The immediate decision is whether a role-based AI literacy course for customer-facing teams is mature enough for a controlled pilot. The strongest evidence should come from learner profile and skills rubric; if either source is missing, mark the recommendation as provisional rather than filling the gap with assumptions.

Recommendation

Recommendation: run a narrow pilot before broad rollout. Prefer a governance-forward pilot if evidence suggests unmeasurable objectives; prefer a speed-forward pilot only when skills rubric and course outline are already reliable.

Options

Option A optimizes speed by shipping a limited workflow around course outline. Option B optimizes control by adding reviewer sign-off and rollback steps. Option C waits until evidence from assessment results is stronger. Use the same success metric for all three options.

Evidence

Evidence to trust: assessment results, learner profile, and reviewer notes from content library. Evidence to treat cautiously: anecdotes that are not tied to a time window, cohort, or source owner.

Risks

Treat cognitive overload as a launch blocker until there is a control that can be verified. The minimum control is: avoid answer-only tutoring, plus reviewer sign-off for ambiguous outputs.

Next actions

Next actions: validate skills rubric, assign a reviewer for unmeasurable objectives, and schedule a decision checkpoint after the first pilot cohort. Do not expand scope until the review path works in practice.

Recommended Decision

Proceed with a narrow pilot focused on learner profile and skills rubric. Treat cognitive overload as the primary launch blocker. The first milestone should prove that the workflow produces a usable lesson plan, practice activity, and assessment rubric with clear evidence, named owners, and a review path for ambiguous cases.

Expected quality checks

The result is specific to AI-assisted tutoring, assessment design, curriculum planning, and workplace learning.
It includes the required sections: Decision needed, Recommendation, Options, Evidence, Risks, Next actions.
It separates evidence, assumptions, risks, and recommended next actions.
It includes practical verification steps, not only generic advice.
It names the most important failure mode for this domain: cognitive overload.

Reuse note

Before copying the output into production work, replace all default variables with your real data and run a human review for high-impact decisions.

Education Learning: Executive Decision Memo

Use this prompt when you need one-page recommendation, options table, risks, and next actions for AI-assisted tutoring, assessment design, curriculum planning, and workplace learning.

Best for

teachers, instructional designers, enablement teams, course creators
Teams that already have partial context but need a sharper, reusable artifact
AI workflows where the output must be auditable, editable, and easy to hand off

How to use

Replace the variables in the prompt with your real project context.
Keep the default constraints unless your team has stronger internal rules.
Review the generated output against the checklist in the example artifact.

Design notes

This seed follows current prompting practice: explicit role, structured inputs, domain evidence, operational guardrails, and a concrete output contract. It is written in English for international PromptHub users.
