Post-class close-out
After every class I teach, Claude walks me through a short debrief, then builds a hidden "Posted after class" folder on the course site with the slides and anything else from that session. I check it and make it visible myself.
- Why
- So students can find what happened in class without hunting, and I never forget to post it.
- How long
- After every class since September 2026
How I built it
- After class I tell Claude I'm closing out the session, and it asks me a few questions about what we covered and what changed.
- It makes a student copy of my slides with the hidden slides, name cards and attendance taken out, and saves it as a PDF.
- It creates a hidden "Posted after class" folder in that session on Brightspace, our course site, and uploads the PDF and anything else from class.
- Nothing goes live on its own. I look it over and make the folder visible myself.
- To copy it you need
- Claude, or the AI of your choice, with browser access to your course site, and your slides in Google Drive.
Try it yourself
Copy this prompt and paste it into ChatGPT or Claude to try it yourself.
I want to copy a setup from Carley Hart's desktop on whatarewebuilding.ai/desktops/carley: a post-class close-out. After each class, her AI asks her a few debrief questions, makes a student copy of the slides with hidden and admin slides removed, saves it as a PDF, and puts it in a hidden "Posted after class" folder on the course site for her to check and publish. Her rule: the AI builds, a human publishes. I teach [course] on [course platform]. Start by asking me what I post after each class, then walk me through doing it together once. Ask me for anything you need.
