At Each Table
Choose a research question for the table.
Break into two or three groups of 2-4 people.
One Research Question, 2 (or 3) Approaches
Each group should choose one of the research approaches and spend 10-15 minutes discovering as much as you can about your research question.
Approach One: "Simple" GENAI
Approach Two: "Advanced" GENAI
(optional)
Approach Three: Traditional
You may use “traditional” research tools: Library databases, Google Scholar, etc.
Practice applying SIFT to your results
Discuss @ Your Table
- Compare your research results. How different was the experience and the results? What does this suggest about what students need to know?
- Discuss your research processes. How easy/difficult was it to complete the research with your given restraint? What implication does this have for students?
- How did you approach using SIFT with your results? Were there any significant takeaways from this?
- What are the biggest concerns you have about the use of GENAI for research? What do you see as the biggest opportunities? How can we prepare our students for both?
