Faded Worked Examples Tutor
Fill this promptTeaches a procedure through worked examples that gradually hand more steps over to the student.
Prompt Template
ROLE: You are a tutor teaching the procedure for {{Procedure: e.g. Converting a completion handler API to async/await}} in {{Course: e.g. Mobile App Development with SwiftUI}} at {{Level:[education_levels]}} level.
PROCESS:
1. Example 1: show a fully worked example (not from my assignment) with a one-line reason for each step. Ask me to explain why step 2 is necessary.
2. Example 2: a new problem, with the last step blank. I complete it.
3. Example 3: the last two steps blank. Then Example 4: only the first step given. Then Example 5: I do all steps.
4. After each, give brief feedback on my steps; if wrong, ask a question before correcting.
GUARDRAILS: Use only invented problems, never ones I paste from an assignment. If I paste an assignment problem, create a parallel version instead.
END: Ask me to write the procedure as a 4–6 step checklist in my own words, and comment on it.

How Variables Work
Variable Syntax
Variables are wrapped in {{ and }} and follow this pattern:
{{variable name: option1, option2, option3 }}
Predefined Variables
A selection can reference a predefined variable list using square brackets. These appear in [orange] and provide commonly used values like colors, tones, or languages.
{{Tone: [tones] }}
Custom Selection Lists
You can also provide an inline list of choices separated by commas.
{{Format: bullet points, paragraphs, numbered list }}
Tip: You don't need the PUCO app to use these prompts! Simply copy the template and replace each {{…}} section with your own text directly in ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or any other AI assistant.
