Prompts for Digital Tools in Education
40 ready-to-use AI chat prompts thematic · Digital Tools — free to download, adapt, and share.
These prompts are written by me, Johan Lindström. With a solid background as a teacher, school leader, and head of education, I know what separates a generic AI prompt online from one that actually works in a school context. A generic prompt doesn't account for age groups, curriculum, or what a teacher's or school leader's day actually looks like. These do. Every prompt is written with a clear purpose — you just fill in the bracketed placeholders with your own context to maximize the prompt's usefulness for you.
Digitalisation in school isn't a goal in itself — it's a means that sometimes fits and sometimes doesn't. The prompts here help you choose, evaluate, and use digital tools where they actually add something, and skip them where they only create friction.
The prompts are aimed mainly at those of you who aren't yet comfortable with prompting — you get ready-made templates to start from and adapt. If you're already an experienced AI user, treat them as an idea bank, or study the megaprompts to see how they're built and learn the structure behind them.

A4 · 40 numbered prompts with glossary and prompt framework
What's inside
Every prompt is written as a template with bracketed placeholders [like this] for you to swap in your own context.
How to use them
Paste the prompt into a chatbot. Where you see [bracketed text], replace it with what fits your situation. Always double-check output for accuracy — and never upload personal or sensitive data.
All prompts were originally developed in a Swedish school context. This means that some prompts may need to be adapted to the curriculum and context in your country.
These prompts pair with the WISE Framework for Education: the framework helps you decide whether to use an AI tool; the prompts help you use it well once you do.
