Guldana Zhumatay · Head of CitizenSec, MSSP GLOBAL

Three steps for tomorrow

AI hygiene

What you can send to AI, how to configure it, and which prompts build thinking.

Never

Full names, national IDs, grades, health, family, children's photos, passwords

After anonymising

Texts without names. Remove rare details too: village, class and achievements identify a person

Fine

General questions, topics, lesson plans, study texts

SettingsChatGPT: Data controls Turn off training (“Improve the model for everyone”) and use Temporary Chat.SettingsGemini: Privacy Hub Google explains who can see your chats and how long they are kept.PromptsAI for Education: Prompt Library Free prompt library for teachers: assessment, planning, parent communication.

Prompts to copy

  • Socratic mode

    Don't give me the answer. Ask me one question at a time and give hints until I solve it myself.

  • Find the mistake

    Check my solution and tell me where the mistake is, but don't fix it.

  • Self-check

    Ask me 3 questions to check whether I understood the topic.

  • A good request: role, context, task, format, limits

    You are a biology curriculum specialist for grade 7. Topic: photosynthesis. Write 5 comprehension questions. Format: a table (question, answer, common mistake). Don't invent facts; flag anything you're unsure of.
