About the AI Tools Workshop
The trainer
The workshop is delivered by Dr. Huma Tauseef, a computer scientist and Associate Professor at Lahore College for Women University, with over 26 years of research and teaching experience in AI, machine learning and data analysis.
Who it is for
Board office staff with no technical background. There is no coding or maths, only practical ways to use AI for letters, notices, translation, summaries and Excel work.
What the Training Covers
- Introduction to AIWhat AI and generative AI are, in plain language
- AI Tools for Office WorkTen categories, from chatbots to OCR
- What Is Prompt Engineering?Giving AI clear, structured instructions
- Prompt Engineering TechniquesTen habits of a strong prompt
- BISE and Office Use Cases24 everyday tasks where AI can help
- AI for Excel and Data WorkFormulas, duplicates and data quality
- Hands-On ExercisesFive practice tasks and a group activity
- AI Safety and Responsible UseWhat never to paste into an AI tool
- Common Prompting MistakesVague requests, missing context and more
- Your Prompting Cheat SheetThe C.L.E.A.R. method and a template
The C.L.E.A.R. Method for Better Prompts
The workshop's cheat sheet sums up a good prompt in five letters. Include these and the AI has far less to guess:
Context: the situation or background of your request.
Limitations: rules to follow, such as word limit or tone.
Explain the task: exactly what you want it to do.
Audience: who will read the result, staff or the public.
Required format: a letter, table, checklist or bullet points.
Weak Prompt vs Strong Prompt
"Write a notice."
"You are an office assistant at an education board. Write a formal notice telling staff that the deadline for submitting attendance sheets has moved to Friday. Under 100 words, with a clear subject line."
The weak version leaves the AI guessing the topic, reader, tone and length. The strong one answers all of these, so the first draft is usually close to what you need. If it is not, ask for changes: good prompting is a loop of prompt, review and refine.
A Ready-to-Use Prompt Template
Copy this, fill in the brackets, and use it for almost any office task:
Act as a [role, e.g. office assistant]. I need you to [the task]. Background: [the situation]. Work from this material: [paste text or data]. Rules: [length, tone, what to keep unchanged]. This is for: [the readers]. Give the result as [letter / table / bullet list]. If anything is missing or unclear, say so instead of guessing.
Think Before You Paste
Safe to use with AI
- General questions and public information
- Generic templates for letters and notices
- Excel formulas tested on made-up sample data
- Internal text with names and IDs removed, if your office allows the tool
Never paste into AI
- Student or candidate data, such as names with roll numbers and marks
- Employee personal or financial details
- Passwords and login details
- Unreleased exam papers or results
AI can be confidently wrong: It may give names, dates, numbers or rules that sound right but are not. Always check its work against the original, and remember that people, not AI, are responsible for official decisions.
