Lab: An AI-assisted literature review

A short review, with sources traced and verified.

Lab

Conduct an AI-assisted literature review on a topic of your choice. Produce a written review with at least 15 verified sources, a synthesized argument, and a documented workflow.

Deliverables

  • The topic and research question.
  • A written literature review of 2,000–3,000 words.
  • A bibliography of at least 15 sources, each independently verified.
  • A documented workflow showing how AI was used at each stage.
  • A one-page reflection on what AI did well, what it did poorly, and what you would do differently.

Rubric

  • Every citation is verifiable to a real source.
  • The synthesized argument is your own, not the AI's.
  • The workflow documentation is specific enough to be reproduced.
  • The reflection engages honestly with the tool's limits.
