You must use AI to complete this project.

FlashGrade provides Claude as your AI tool — use the prompt box above. You are responsible for writing a strong prompt. Chapter 8 of your textbook explains what makes a great prompt.

Step 1 — Write your prompt

No starter prompt is provided. Write your own prompt asking Claude to research a career field you are genuinely curious about. Your prompt should tell Claude who you are, what career you are researching, and exactly what information you need. You have 3 attempts — use them to iterate and improve.

Step 2 — Build your Word document (.docx)

Using Claude’s response, create a Microsoft Word document with four sections. Copy the AI response into a new Word document that you create yourself. Microsoft Word only — not Google Docs, not Pages. Save as .docx before uploading.

Section 1: Career Overview — What do professionals do day to day? What industries hire them? What does the career path look like?

Section 2: Job Market Conditions — Is this field growing or shrinking? Where are the jobs? How competitive is it to break in?

Section 3: Salary Data — Entry level, mid-career, and senior salaries. Must match your spreadsheet. AI salary figures are frequently outdated — verify them.

Section 4: AI’s Impact on This Field — Which tasks are being automated? What skills are becoming more valuable? Be specific. “AI will change everything” is not an answer.

Step 3 — Build your Excel spreadsheet (.xlsx)

Create a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet with two worksheets as described below. Excel only — not Google Sheets. Save as .xlsx before uploading.

Sheet 1 — Salary Data: A table with at least 5 job titles. For each role include entry, mid, and senior salary. Below the table add: =SUM, =AVERAGE, =MAX, =MIN formulas on the salary data.

Sheet 2 — Career Comparison: A table comparing 3 to 5 job titles with top skills required, average salary, and 5-year growth outlook.

Step 4 — Write your personal takeaway

Type your personal takeaway directly into FlashGrade in the box above. This cannot be written by AI. What surprised you? How does this change your career plans? If it could apply to any student in any career, rewrite it. Minimum 50 words.

Frequently asked questions

Which AI tool should I use? Any tool — ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot, Gemini, Perplexity. Free versions are fine. Document it in your prompt log.

Can I resubmit a file? Yes — you can replace any file before the deadline. Just upload again and it replaces the previous version.

Where do I find my PIN? Your PIN is the last 4 digits of your 10-digit ASU student ID, found on your Sun Card or in MyASU.

Where do I find my username? Your ASU username is the short ID you use to log into Canvas — something like zander19 or msmith45.

Do I need to rename my files? No — FlashGrade names them automatically based on your roster information.

When will I get my grade? Within 48 hours of submitting all three files. Check your submission status here anytime.

What if the AI was accurate the whole time? Look harder. Every AI tool makes at least one error or omission on a real research task. That's the point.
