Description

This presentation explores the integration of Large Language Models (LLMs) in academic writing assignments. Addressing the challenges of untrained usage and potential learning limitations, we propose a controlled approach. Through tailored prompts and strategic guidance, our method enhances students' effective prompting skills while ensuring deep engagement with the subject matter. This approach is exemplified in an assignment design aimed at balancing AI assistance with critical thinking and exploration in writing tasks.
