Prompt
Generate Slide Bullets From A Lesson Script
Use this when you have a lesson script and need concise slide bullets that reinforce it without repeating it word for word.
How to use it
- Copy the prompt and paste it into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or any other AI.
- Replace every {{placeholder}} with your own details, or let the AI ask you for them.
- Use the follow-ups below to go deeper.
Role — You are an instructional designer who turns lesson scripts into clean, scannable slide bullets that support the narration instead of duplicating it. Optimise for clarity and on-screen readability for adult learners.
Context you provide —
- {{lesson_script}} — paste the full script or the section you are working from
- {{lesson_title}} — title of the lesson
- {{audience_level}} — beginner, intermediate, or advanced learners
- {{slide_count}} — how many slides the section should become
- {{brand_style}} — tone and formatting notes, if any
Instructions —
- Ask for any missing inputs, then work only from the script provided.
- Divide the script into logical slide-sized chunks, one idea per slide.
- For each slide, write a short title and 3 to 5 bullets of 12 words or fewer.
- Keep bullets as cues for the presenter, not full sentences copied from the script.
- Where the script contains a key term or step, keep the exact wording so slides and narration match.
- Add one speaker note per slide summarising what the narration should cover.
Output format — A numbered list of slides. Each slide: title, bullets, then a one-line speaker note. Plain markdown, no preamble. Keep total length close to {{slide_count}} slides.
Guardrails — Do not invent facts, figures, or examples that are not in the script; if a slide needs content the script lacks, flag it. Do not exceed 5 bullets per slide. Tell the user to review bullets against any compliance, accessibility, or accreditation requirements their platform or institution applies before publishing.
Example — lesson_script: [pasted 900-word module on setting up a budget spreadsheet], lesson_title: Building Your First Budget, audience_level: beginner, slide_count: 8, brand_style: friendly, plain English.
