In the email-to-parent demonstration, the teacher typed a clear prompt into the AI tool, explaining the situation she wanted addressed and the tone she wanted the email to have. By being specific in her request, such as asking for a professional but supportive message, she was able to get a draft that matched the response she was looking for. This showed how giving the AI enough context and direction can make its output more useful, instead of vague or generic.
It's also notable that after the AI provided a draft, she reviewed and edited it to make sure the message fit her student’s situation. She adjusted the wording to reflect her own teaching style and added personal touches so the parent would feel the message was genuine and tailored to their child’s needs. This step highlighted how AI can be a helpful starting point, but the teacher’s judgment and personalization make it effective.
