AI 102 Practice

Five short activities that build the judgment behind a good Context Canvas

Info

Self-check (not scored, not stored). Every activity gives immediate feedback and explains why. If you miss, pick again; an activity is done when every item is right.

Prompt or Context?

For each case, decide where the problem most likely sits.

0 of 8 correct

Item 1

A staff member attaches the full meeting transcript and asks: "Summarize this." The summary is long and unfocused, with no action items.

Item 2

The prompt clearly asks for the current annual leave rules in a five-line list. The AI only had the 2022 handbook and quotes a rule that has since changed.

Item 3

A user types "Help me with the quarterly report" and attaches nothing. The AI produces a generic template.

Item 4

The AI drafts a well reasoned dismissal letter. Someone has to decide whether the evidence is enough to dismiss an employee.

Item 5

The prompt specifies audience, format and length. The AI recommends a supplier that exceeds the budget, because no budget figure was provided.

Item 6

A user attaches a draft essay and writes only: "Make it better."

Item 7

A user writes "Reply to the complaint" without saying the tone wanted, and without attaching the complaint email itself.

Item 8

The shared folder holds two versions of a travel rule, and even the office is unsure which one is in force. The AI picks one.

Sort each piece of information into one of the seven context types.
