Space Creator: Setting Up a Space
AI Prompt
Standards
Title
This is where the magic happens. Type out what you want the AI to do or say, and how it should respond to your students. This is similar to giving instructions: the clearer and more specific your instructions, the better the AI will follow them. Don’t be overly concerned about formatting or keeping it short here. More instruction typically leads to a better experience.
Even if you don’t have a learning standard to match, choosing one helps the AI understand its audience. The tone of language, difficulty, and engagement adjusts to match any age or learning level.
You can also attach a document to further support the learning standard. This is a great option to include lesson plans, worksheets, reading materials, visual aids, or assessment rubrics.
Viewable by students and should provide an overview of the topic.
Cover Image
Upload your own, or make an AI-generated image. The title of the Space informs the image generation, so if you’re looking for something more specific, change the title to change the image.

Teacher Description
Helps further define the Space. Students can see it, so you can use it to set expectations, give more of a preview, or dive into the details.
The teacher description can be seen by you and other teachers/administrators on SchoolAI. This can be helpful to differentiate if you teach the same subject to multiple grades, or need to tailor a Space for each of your classes.
Student Description

Preview
This is what students see. Use it to provide instruction or a goal. Giving simple instructions to your students such as “Send a message and the AI will guide you” can be helpful for students who may not have understood verbal instructions.
Preview your Space before launching. Interact with the Space as if you are a student and make changes to the prompts if needed.

You can’t edit the Space after it’s already been launched and students are interacting, so it’s important to cover the details while you’re setting up the Space. If you need to edit the Space after launching it, you can pause the active Space and edit the Space prompt through the three dot options menu.
