Scalable Competitive Intelligence Education Through Micro-Learning And Micro-Credentials, Heather A. Howard, Margaret Phillips, Dave Zwicky, Frederick Berry 2024 Purdue University

Scalable Competitive Intelligence Education Through Micro-Learning And Micro-Credentials, Heather A. Howard, Margaret Phillips, Dave Zwicky, Frederick Berry

Libraries Faculty and Staff Scholarship and Research

It is essential for students, both inside and outside the business school, to learn business information literacy skills to make evidence-based decisions. To address this need, faculty from a large public university developed a competitive intelligence digital module using micro-learning and micro-credentialing concepts designed to be scalable for use in many disciplinary areas. During the pilot, students in a first-year Management course and a senior capstone Engineering Technology course were surveyed to determine their perceptions of the content’s utility and usability. This paper presents the results of this survey to determine student perceptions and if there are any disciplinary differences.

Generative Ai Large Language Models And Researching The Law, Paul D. Callister 2024 University of Missouri - Kansas City, School of Law

Generative Ai Large Language Models And Researching The Law, Paul D. Callister

Faculty Works

The article discusses the transformative impact of generative AI large language models (LLMs) on legal research. Callister explores how these AI models, despite their current imperfections, are poised to shift the cognitive (or trusted) authority within the legal profession. He attributes this shift to the ease with which AI processes vast amounts of legal information and the anthropomorphic design of LLMs, which fosters trust among users. Callister introduces the concept of Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), explaining how AI platforms integrate legal texts into their responses, enhancing their reliability over purely generative models. Through various examples, he demonstrates the strengths and limitations …

Library Philosophy and Practice (e-journal)

The most important aspect of any library is its patrons. Any library’s goal is to determine what its users need, meet those needs, and satisfy them to the best of its ability. When it comes to public libraries, they face greater challenges in meeting the requirements of their increasingly diverse readership. The present study is an attempt to analyze the awareness and usage of the information sources and services offered by the D.V.G. public library, Kolar.

Ai Tools For Literature Reviews, Jing Lu, Zoeanna A. Mayhook 2024 Purdue University

Ai Tools For Literature Reviews, Jing Lu, Zoeanna A. Mayhook

Libraries Faculty and Staff Presentations

With the proliferation of AI tools, graduate students often ask themselves how these tools can be ethically used to bolster their research. ChatGPT has gained traction, but its utility is constrained by issues like outdated information, artificial hallucinations, and limited access to scholarly publications hidden behind a paywall. Fortunately, new AI tools have been developed that promote academic exploration and discovery, such as offering generative article summaries, citation chaining, and thematic literature mapping capabilities. This workshop will explore three AI tools—Perplexity, Research Rabbit, and Inciteful—designed to support the research and literature review process. This session will provide a demonstration showcasing …
