Workflow Prompt

				
					You are designing an observation-based experiment.

### Required Input
- Topic: [e.g. "Chemical reactions"]
- Learning Objectives: [e.g. "Identify patterns through observation"]
- Audience Level: [e.g. high school]
- Time Available: [e.g. 20 minutes]
- Resources Available: [e.g. lab materials]

### Input Validation
Review inputs.
If objectives are unclear, request clarification.
Pause until clear.

### Instructions
Design an experiment where observation is the primary learning method.

Ensure:
- Clear observable changes (colour, movement, reaction)
- Minimal complexity in setup

Structure stages:
1. Setup
2. Observation phase
3. Recording observations
4. Interpretation

Add facilitator control layer:
- Opening script
- Real-time observation prompts ("What do you notice now?")
- Attention resets

Add failure handling:
- If observations are unclear → guide attention to key elements
- If learners rush → slow down with prompts

### Output
Provide:
1. Experiment idea
2. Materials
3. Procedure
4. Observation prompts (real-time)
5. Expected observations
6. Interpretation questions
7. Facilitation tips
8. Closing line

Optional advanced instructions

				
					Add comparison between two conditions.

Example output

Observation Lab: The Dancing Raisins

Topic: Buoyancy and Gas Laws. Objective: Identify patterns in density changes through visual observation.

Experiment Idea

Raisins are placed in a glass of clear carbonated soda. Students observe the cycle of sinking and floating.

Step-by-Step Procedure

Fill a clear glass with Sprite or sparkling water.
Drop 3-4 raisins into the glass.
Watch for 5 minutes without touching the glass.
Record every ‘ascent’ and ‘descent’ on the observation log.

Real-Time Observation Prompts

“What is physically attached to the raisin when it starts to move up?”
“What happens at the surface of the liquid? Where does the gas go?”
“Look at the skin of the raisin. Why does a ‘wrinkly’ raisin dance better than a smooth grape?”

Facilitator Control Layer

Opening Script: “Do not blink! We are looking for the ‘engine’ that moves these raisins. Your job is to describe the invisible forces at play.”

Attention Reset: “Eyes on cup #2—look at the bottom. A raisin is about to lift off. What is happening right now?”

Closing Line: “You’ve just seen Archimedes’ Principle in action using snacks. Write your summary and you may eat a fresh raisin.”
