Top 10 AI Prompts and Use Cases and in the Education Industry in Fayetteville

Fayetteville's education landscape is shifting from alarm to action: the University of Arkansas has staged campus-wide events, offered an SEC “Teaching with AI” course that awarded AUAI badges to faculty, and opened channels for departmental consultations to help instructors integrate LLMs into course design (University of Arkansas campus AI initiative and faculty training), while the University Libraries publishes a practical “AI and Academic Integrity” research guide on citing AI, ethical use, and fact‑checking (University Libraries AI and academic integrity guide).

Career-focused instruction now teaches prompt skills because employers value AI proficiency, and faculty report AI can ease workload when used thoughtfully - so Fayetteville classrooms are moving toward clear syllabus policies and workforce-ready AI training that both protect academic integrity and give students marketable skills (University of Arkansas career-focused AI training for student workforce readiness).

“We did experience an uptick in academic dishonesty cases related to the use of generative artificial intelligence towards the end of the spring 2023 term, and we will be here again this semester to assist faculty in addressing their concerns as they arise. Given the broad range of approaches towards generative artificial intelligence among faculty on our campus, I would encourage instructors to define their expectations within their syllabi and talk about this in class. Students are most definitely seeking this type of guidance and engagement from their instructors.”

Selections focused on what Fayetteville schools already use and can adopt without creating new compliance headaches: prompts and use cases were chosen only if they tied to University of Arkansas–level practice (campus workshops and SEC “Teaching with AI” training (University of Arkansas Teaching with AI initiative), the Libraries' practical “AI and Academic Integrity” guidance on citing and ethical use (University of Arkansas Libraries AI and Academic Integrity guidance), and the university's Academic Integrity Policy (University of Arkansas Academic Integrity Policy)); evaluated each item for policy alignment, classroom actionability, and clear student/workforce benefit; and removed any prompt that relied on tools or workflows flagged by campus experts (for example, faculty were advised not to run student work through outside AI‑detection services because of FERPA/privacy risks).

The result is a short list of prompts and use cases that map to existing syllabus language, protect student records, and deliver measurable time‑savings or skill gains faculty can pilot immediately in Fayetteville classrooms.

Filter	What it insured
Policy alignment	Compatible with UARK Academic Integrity & Library guidance
Classroom actionability	Usable in faculty workshops and syllabi
Student/workforce value	Teaches prompt skills or reduces routine grading burden

“AI can be a fabulous tool for improving our research experience, … but like any other tool, it is best to use it wisely.”

University of Arkansas instructional designers and Global Campus staff have turned course design into a laboratory for AI‑resilient assignments: Blackboard Ultra's built‑in AI tools generate rubrics and question banks while faculty redesign tasks so students must personalize responses and critiqued AI outputs, a tactic tested across three sections of a retail‑strategy course to gradually refine prompts and expectations; practical safeguards include using Turnitin for flags, clear syllabus AI policies with citation rules, and requiring students to submit AI‑interaction evidence so grading rewards critical thinking rather than verbatim AI text (see the University of Arkansas Global Campus report on AI prompts and a local primer on automated grading that reduces teacher workload).

These changes let Fayetteville instructors convert time saved by AI into deeper active learning and protect academic integrity in workforce‑oriented classes.

Goal	Concrete Action
Safeguard integrity	Use Turnitin as an investigative flag
Set expectations	Publish an AI policy and require AI citations
Promote learning	Have students critique AI outputs and submit interaction evidence

“At the very least require some kind of evidence that they are using it, because they are using it, and whether they are using it well is still a question to be asked,”

Panorama Solara is a purpose-built K–12 AI platform that turns fragmented district data into rapid, actionable supports - summarizing risk signals, drafting SMART MTSS goals, and generating attendance‑nudge letters or individualized intervention plans in seconds so educators can spend saved time on direct instruction; Fayetteville districts can use Solara's district‑custom tools and role‑based access to align AI outputs with local curriculum and MTSS workflows while keeping control of student data (Panorama Solara K–12 AI platform).

Built on AWS with model and safety guardrails that prioritize privacy and compliance, Solara reduces administrative burden at scale and feeds teacher-facing recommendations into school processes - see how Panorama and AWS describe faster data synthesis and personalized plans (how Panorama built Solara on AWS) and how districts use Solara to strengthen MTSS across schools (Boston Public Schools Solara MTSS case study).

University of Toronto teams have piloted progressive web apps and chatbot‑based triage that translate clinical screening into rapid, user‑friendly supports - findings from a JMIR usability study listed on U of T's research pages show a mean System Usability Scale (SUS) of 81.75 and user themes like

“engaging, personalized, and credible,”

while a pilot reported that roughly 78% of automated checks were triaged as low risk, signaling a real opportunity for Fayetteville schools to route non‑urgent students to evidence‑based self‑help and reserve counselors for higher‑risk cases (U of T Monica Parry publications on chatbot usability study).

Practical takeaways for Arkansas: adopt clear disclaimers that the chatbot is not a person and fix basic accessibility issues (the study flagged low contrast/small font as high‑priority), pair any tool with local crisis pathways, and consult U of T's AI‑in‑health expertise and ethics programming as governance partners (T‑CAIREM AI and mental‑health expertise and membership, U of T Centre for Ethics past events and governance resources), so Fayetteville can scale triage without trading away safety or inclusion.

Metric	Detail
SUS (usability)	81.75 (high usability)
Triaged low risk	~78% (pilot usage)
High‑priority issues	Low contrast / small font; clarify chatbot is not a real person

Blackboard Ultra's AI Design Assistant turns routine rubric and assessment setup into a practical time-saver for Fayetteville faculty: the tool will auto‑generate a grading rubric from an existing assignment or assignment description, let instructors choose rubric type (percentage/points), adjust complexity, and set the number of rows and columns before generating a draft that must be reviewed and edited for accuracy (Step-by-step rubric generation guide for Blackboard Ultra).

Available only in Ultra Course View, the assistant also drafts test questions and question banks from Ultra Documents, so departments can convert prep hours into more in‑class coaching; instructors should note Blackboard's documentation about using limited course context with Microsoft's Azure OpenAI service and guardrails for privacy when adding sensitive course information (Blackboard AI Design Assistant overview and settings).

The result for Arkansas classrooms is concrete: faster, consistent rubrics that free faculty time for feedback - while preserving human control and requiring one final instructional check before publishing.

Feature	Practical benefit for Fayetteville
Auto‑generate rubrics	Speeds rubric creation so instructors devote time to student feedback
Customizable complexity/rows/columns	Matches assessment detail to course level and program standards
Question & question‑bank generation	Quickly produces formative checks tied to course content

“The new Blackboard AI Design Assistant is a powerful set of tools that aids instructors in creating and designing course content.”

Ivy Tech Community College's NewT early‑alert system shows how cloud‑scaled predictive analytics can turn noisy LMS and registration signals into timely interventions: the program scaled to about 12 million data points and used Google Cloud/TensorFlow models to flag students at risk within the first two weeks of term, with reported ~80% prediction accuracy; in one rollout NewT identified roughly 16,000 students likely to struggle and outreach helped about 3,000 of them move to passing - yielding the college's largest recorded decrease in failing grades in fifty years (Ivy Tech NewT case study on Google Cloud, Ivy Tech NewT pilot analysis on Collegis Education).

Metric	Reported value
Prediction accuracy	~80%
Data volume	~12 million data points
Students flagged	~16,000
Students moved to passing	~3,000

Fayetteville institutions can replicate the “so what” quickly: deploy early‑alert prompts against local LMS and engagement data to prioritize human outreach in week two, converting predictive flags into measurable grade recovery while keeping interventions focused and trackable.

Emory University's six‑week, online "Ethical Path to AI" certificate trains leaders to spot and mitigate bias, harden data‑privacy practices, and produce evaluation checklists that turn abstract ethics into operational steps; the program pairs video lectures and weekly hands‑on assignments with personalized feedback and culminates in an actionable ethical risk assessment plan that can be applied to local AI pilots (Program details: 6 weeks, asynchronous, USD $1,450) - a concrete payoff for Arkansas districts seeking defensible oversight of classroom AI tools.
