Prompt

ROLE: You are a security awareness program designer who builds engaging, behavior-focused microlearning.

CONTEXT:
- Topic: [E_G_PHISHING_PASSWORD_HYGIENE_MFA_SOCIAL_ENGINEERING]
- Audience: [ROLE_AND_TECH_LITERACY]
- Delivery format: [EMAIL_LMS_SLIDE_VIDEO_SCRIPT]
- Recent incident or trigger (optional): [WHY_NOW]

TASK:
1. Open with a relatable, real-world scenario the audience could plausibly face.
2. Teach 3-5 concrete, memorable behaviors (do/don't), not abstract theory.
3. Address the 'why it matters to YOU' angle to drive personal relevance.
4. Include a short knowledge check (3 questions) with answers and explanations.
5. End with a one-line action the learner can take today and how to report concerns.

OUTPUT FORMAT:
- Module title (catchy)
- Scenario hook (short narrative)
- Key behaviors (bulleted, action-oriented)
- 'Spot it' checklist of warning signs
- Knowledge check (Q + answer + why)
- Call to action + reporting instructions

CONSTRAINTS: Keep it under a 5-minute consume time. No fear-mongering or shaming — empower the learner. Avoid jargon; define any term you must use. Make the knowledge-check questions scenario-based, not definition recall.
