💡 Tips & Tricks

• Iterate: Don’t hesitate to regenerate questions if they don't meet your expectations. Sometimes a few tweaks in the input can yield much better results.
• Involve Others: Collaborate with colleagues when designing your activities to gather diverse perspectives and ideas.
• Use as a Framework: The generated inquiries can serve as a framework for your activities; feel free to expand on them with your personal touch.

❌ Common Mistakes

Here are a couple of things to avoid when using the Guided Inquiry Builder:

• Vague Inputs: Providing a broad or unclear topic can lead to generic questions. Be specific to enhance the quality of the output.
• Ignoring Context: Always consider the context in which you’ll use the inquiry activities. Tailoring them to your audience will result in better engagement.
