Learning objectives

• Ask effective plain-English questions.
• Validate grounded answers with citations.
• Improve answer quality with better prompts.

Prerequisites

• Completion of Module 01.
• Access to a processed document.

Concepts (with examples)

Focused question design

Example: Ask "What is the margin for Facility B?" instead of "Explain pricing."

Grounded answer behavior

Example: A grounded answer includes clause-based citations you can inspect.

Out-of-scope handling

Example: If the document has no test date, Q&A returns out-of-scope.

Walkthrough (step-by-step with expected outcomes)

1. Open Document Q&A for one document. Expected outcome: Question input and answer panel appear.
2. Ask a specific question on one topic. Expected outcome: Answer appears with citations.
3. Open citation references. Expected outcome: Supporting text is visible.
4. Refine question for precision. Expected outcome: More focused answer is returned.

Practice exercise

Ask three targeted questions about parties, dates, and covenants, then verify each citation.

Knowledge check questions

1. What makes a question high quality?
2. How do you verify a grounded answer?
3. Why do out-of-scope responses happen?
