AI Prompt Library
The AI Prompt Library is a collection of prompt templates designed to give you a starting point and inspiration you need to use generative AI tools like an expert.
What is a prompt?
A prompt is simply an instruction you give to a Generative AI tool to receive the magical output you’re looking for.
In the AI Prompt Library, you will find prompts from different categories, such as learning, exams, writing or feedback. The description of each prompt includes tips and disclaimers, which offer additional information about the prompt.
The AI Prompt Library indicates which prompting methods were used and why they are important. Hopefully, seeing the examples will help you experiment with your own prompts. Should you have prompt suggestions that could be useful for others, do not hesitate to send them to us.
Let’s grow the AI Prompt Library together!
The AI Prompt Library is a collaborative effort by Michalina Kaminska, a lecturer at SBE, EDLAB, and the University Library, with funding provided by Npuls. Npuls is a national growth fund programme focusing on the digital transformation of education.

Disclaimer
The AI Prompt Library presents examples to UM students and staff on how to make better use of Generative AI (GenAI) in the educational process. Maastricht University does not recommend the use of any specific GenAI tool. However, you are strongly advised to opt-out of allowing your content to be used to (further) train the GenAI tool of your choice. This can usually be done in Settings.
Given that all information entered into an AI tool will be stored and can be reused by the GenAI tool provider as they deem fit, one should not feed: UM- data, confidential information and trade secrets; personal data and sensitive data relating to you or other people; copyrighted materials (such as books, academic articles e.t.c.), but also materials for which the UM is the copyright holder, such as educational materials including coursebooks, syllabi, ppt, e.t.c.
Certain GenAI practices in education may not be allowed or encouraged within your faculty’s policy framework and/or rules and regulations. Please check first any relevant rules on the use of GenAI in education, applicable to you, and defined at activity, course/module, study programme and faculty level.
GenAI can only be employed for high-risk practices under strict conditions set out in the EU AI Act. UM currently refrains from employing GenAI in relation to student assessment, selection and admission procedures, monitoring and detection of prohibited behaviour during exams, pending further thorough investigation of the conditions.
