Utilizing AI for Scholarly Research
Finding quality academic sources doesn't have to be overwhelming. While general AI chatbots can provide quick answers, they may also generate inaccurate information, misleading summaries, or even fabricated references. This hands-on workshop introduces students to powerful research tools designed specifically for academic inquiry. Learn how to use HKUST Library's Primo PowerSearch to identify relevant scholarly sources and generate research overviews, then leverage SciSpace to build literature matrices and synthesise key findings across studies. By the end of the session, you'll be able to locate, evaluate, organise, and compare academic sources more efficiently as you prepare for research-based assignments.
