Learning goals
- Use AI to support reading, organizing, and framing research work.
- Recognize citation, fabrication, and bias risks in AI-supported research.
- Build a transparent research workflow.
Key ideas
In research settings, AI often helps most with organization and comparison rather than interpretation and methodological judgment.
Learners should therefore document both what AI did and how they checked or revised its work.
Visual cases
This cover situates AI inside a research-support context rather than as a substitute for scholarly judgment.
The interface visual supports discussion of source-aware reading, synthesis, and cross-checking.
Activities
Activity 1: Cross-checking summaries
Compare a human summary with an AI summary of the same reading and identify missing or distorted points.
Activity 2: Narrowing a research topic
Use AI to brainstorm, then refine the result into a specific and researchable question.
Task
Submit a short research workflow note explaining how you would use AI for reading, synthesis, and writing support.
