How to Integrate AI into Capstone Curricula: Results from a Trial Run

In this meeting of the Teaching with AI Exploratory Teaching Group, Matthias Staisch (Associate Senior Instructional Professor, Committee on International Relations) will share insights on how to teach students a workflow for conducting independent research (e.g. MA or Honors thesis). After describing the modular research process he provides for students, he will share how a team of MA students who had just completed their research projects reverse-engineered their own research practice by using a whole suite of AI research assistants: ChatGPT, Consensus, Elicit, Jenni, Lateral, LitMaps, Paperpal, Perplexity, Scholarcy, and SciSpace. He will discuss how students judged the utility of these tools and reflect on the principles these students taught him for redesigning his own research pedagogy.
