In a world where AI is everywhere\, the “how” and “when” of using these tools can be confusing. Does this professor allow it? Is this citation real? \nWe’ll show you how to use Generative AI as a “planning tool” to brainstorm topics\, simplify complex theories\, and draft effective library database search strings. Then\, we’ll move from the blueprint to the construction site: showing you how to take those plans into Âé¶ąAPP library databases to find the high-quality\, peer-reviewed sources that aren’t freely available on the world wide web. \nJoin via Zoom.
