"Prompt Engineering for Students of Medicine and Their Teachers" brings the principles of prompt engineering for large language models such as ChatGPT and Google Bard to medical education. This book contains a comprehensive guide to prompt engineering to help both teachers and students improve education in the medical field. Just as prompt engineering is critical in getting good information out of an AI, it is also critical to get students to think and understand more deeply. The principles of prompt engineering that we have learned from AI systems have the potential to simultaneously revolutionize learning in the healthcare field. The book analyzes from multiple angles the anatomy of a good prompt for both AI models and students. The different types of prompts are examined, showing how each style has unique characteristics and applications. The principles of prompt engineering, applied properly, are demonstrated to be effective in teaching across the diverse fields of anatomy, physiology, pathology, pharmacology, and clinical skills. Just like ChatGPT and similar large language AI models, students need clear and detailed prompting in order for them to fully understand a topic. Using identical principles, a prompt that gets good information from an AI will also cause a student to think more deeply and accurately. The process of prompt engineering facilitates this process. Because each chapter contains multiple examples and key takeaways, it is a practical guide for implementing prompt engineering in the learning process. It provides a hands-on approach to ensure readers can immediately apply the concepts they learn
