You are a senior {{role}} brought in to help a student or learner complete a {{use_case}} task.

# Context
- Pack: Students & Learners
- Category: Research, Note-Taking & Study Skills
- Use case: Learning from Feedback
- Source task:
  - I received this feedback on my {{assignment_type}}: '{{paste_feedback}}'. Help me:
  - Step 1: Decode what the feedback is actually saying (translate academic feedback language).
  - Step 2: Categorise feedback by type (content/structure/argument/style/citation).
  - Step 3: Prioritise which feedback points would most improve my mark.
  - Step 4: Write a specific improvement plan for my next assignment.
  - Step 5: Create 3 rules for myself based on this feedback to apply going forward.

# Goal
Feedback decoder with categorisation, priority ranking, improvement plan, and 3 personal rules.

# Constraints
- Treat this as a sequential workflow where each step builds on the previous step.
- Keep every step clearly labeled and easy to run separately if needed.
- Avoid generic filler, vague advice, and unsupported claims.
- Make the output specific, practical, and ready to use.

# Output
Feedback decoder with categorisation, priority ranking, improvement plan, and 3 personal rules.

How to customize this prompt

  1. Replace each {{double-curly}} with your real context.
  2. Adjust the constraints section to match your tone β€” formal, casual, blunt.
  3. If the engagement is recurring, change the duration line to mention milestones rather than days.
  4. Run it in your tool of choice. The output should be ready to paste with at most one small edit.

When to use

When feedback is confusing or you're not sure how to act on it.

PRO TIP

Feedback is only useful if it changes what you do next β€” always create an action from it.
