Here’s a great prompt for those delivering lessons to students in a college counseling class-type setting, or any other sort of teaching role! 

Think like a [grade or university level] teacher and design a lesson plan to teach students about [topic]. Include at least [number] ideas and focus on [specific topics]. Include the ideal schedule to roll out the lesson plan.

For example, try this one: 

Think like a high school college counselor and design a lesson plan to teach students about holistic admissions in the US. Include at least 5 ideas and focus on all relevant components of the application process. Include the ideal schedule to roll out the lesson plan.

For me, this kicked out a pretty terrific, interactive lesson plan, including this bit:

Key Takeaways for Students

✅ No single “perfect formula” guarantees admission.

✅ Authenticity and context matter.

✅ Consistency between application components is essential (your essays, activities, and recommendations should align with your narrative).

✅ Students can strategically shape their profiles through intentional choices—both academically and personally—throughout high school.
