Prompt engineering is a critical skill for effectively leveraging large language models (LLMs) in both research and applied domains. This workshop provides a structured introduction to the principles and techniques of prompt design, focusing on how carefully crafted prompts can influence model behavior to yield accurate, relevant, and purpose-driven responses. Participants will explore foundational strategies such as role-based prompting, task framing, step-by-step reasoning, and few-shot learning. The session emphasizes practical methodologies for enhancing the clarity, consistency, and reliability of outputs when interacting with LLMs. It includes a walkthrough of example prompts, demonstrating how specific changes influence the model's responses and highlighting key techniques for effective prompt engineering in real-world scenarios. This workshop is intended for everyone who is interested in developing effective interactions with large language models. While the session is accessible and application-focused, participants are expected to have a basic understanding of prompt engineering concepts and terminology, AI concepts, GPT models or language models will be helpful. The session is designed to be accessible for beginners while offering valuable insights for those looking to apply prompt engineering techniques in academic, educational, or applied research contexts.Presented by Nafisa IslamVirtual Location URL: https://ucf.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_088cGOVUjQ8pmlw Registration Link: https://ucf.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_088cGOVUjQ8pmlw
