✅ How to use this effectively
- Open ChatGPT or Claude.
- Fill [TOPIC], [CLASS] and your source link.
- Paste the prompt and send.
- Copy the pre-class part to share with students.
- Keep the in-class agenda open while teaching.
🔧 If it is not right, reply with this: If the in-class tasks feel too easy, reply: 'Raise the difficulty of the in-class problems to [JEE/Board] level and add one open-ended challenge with a hint ladder.'
THE PROMPT
ROLE: Act as an expert mathematics teacher who designs flipped-classroom lessons that move lecture to homework and problem-solving to class.
CONTEXT: I teach [CLASS/GRADE] for [BOARD or EXAM]. The topic is [TOPIC]. Students will learn the basics BEFORE class from [SOURCE: my video link / textbook pages / a reading], then we do problems together in a [N e.g. 45]-minute period.
YOUR TASK:
1. PRE-CLASS (home): write exactly what students must watch/read, with 4-5 'while you watch' guiding questions and a 5-minute 'readiness check' (3 quick questions with answers) they self-mark.
2. ENTRY CHECK (first 5-7 min in class): a tiny diagnostic to confirm they did the pre-work, plus what I do if half the class did NOT prepare (a 4-minute rescue mini-lecture script).
3. IN-CLASS CORE: a sequenced set of problems for individual -> pair -> whole-class work, with a hint ladder (Hint 1, Hint 2, full solution) for each.
4. CHECKS FOR UNDERSTANDING: 2 mid-lesson questions and what a right/wrong answer tells me.
5. CLOSE: a 2-question exit ticket and the next pre-class assignment.
INPUT: Here is my source and any constraints (time, no devices, etc.): [PASTE SOURCE / NOTES].
HOW TO WORK IT OUT: Solve every readiness, in-class, and exit question fully and VERIFY each answer by a second independent method. Never invent formulas or values. Keep all mathematics legible in plain ASCII (^, sqrt(), a/b). Make sure the in-class timings fit [N] minutes and confirm the hint ladders actually lead to the boxed answer.
OUTPUT FORMAT (with headings, in order):
1. SNAPSHOT: Topic, Class, Board, Duration, the flipped idea in one line.
2. PRE-CLASS ASSIGNMENT (what to watch/read + guiding questions + readiness check with answers).
3. ENTRY CHECK + rescue mini-lecture script.
4. IN-CLASS PROBLEM SET as a table: Problem | Mode (solo/pair/class) | Hint 1 | Hint 2 | Full solution.
5. CHECKS FOR UNDERSTANDING.
6. EXIT TICKET (2 Qs + answers) and NEXT PRE-CLASS task.
RULES: Pre-work must be short and doable at home. In-class time is for problem-solving, not lecturing. Plain ASCII maths. Realistic timings.
OUTPUT FILE FORMAT: present the complete result as a clean, ready-to-use document I can paste straight into Microsoft Word or Google Docs - a clear bold title, section headings, neatly numbered items, comfortable spacing, and simple tables only where helpful (avoid heavy formatting that breaks on paste). It must also print cleanly to PDF on A4 (File > Print > Save as PDF). Keep all mathematics fully readable (fractions as a/b, powers as x^2, roots as sqrt(x)).
MATHS FORMATTING: Write ALL mathematics so it reads correctly in a normal chat and pastes cleanly into Word or Google Docs. Use plain readable notation - for example a/b for fractions, x^2 for powers, sqrt(x) for roots, and symbols like <=, >=, !=, +-, pi, theta, integral and sum. Do NOT output raw LaTeX or code such as \frac{}{}, \sqrt{}, x^{2}, $...$ or \( ... \) - these appear as broken symbols to a teacher in a free chat.
At the very end add a footer line: 'Prepared by [YOUR NAME]', and put 'Compiled by [YOUR NAME]' in the title block at the top.
CONTEXT CHECK: Before you begin, if any [SQUARE-BRACKET] above is still empty, or I have not given you the question / photo / data you need, ask me for exactly those and wait - never guess, and never answer with the placeholder text still in brackets.
GROUND RULES (always follow): Do not invent statistics, percentages, marks distributions you were not given, exam cut-offs, solve-time figures, NCERT or textbook page/line numbers, citations, or historical exam data. If you are unsure of any fact or number, say so and clearly label it an estimate; keep established fact separate from your own inference. Every step must be mathematically correct and at the stated class/board/exam level.
SIGNATURE: End your ENTIRE response with exactly this footer block (keep the lines and symbols):
