"Research is iterative and depends upon asking increasingly complex or new questions whose answers in turn develop additional questions or lines of inquiry in any field." (ACRL Framework)

Learning Outcomes:

Students will formulate research questions related to their topic by engaging in iterative dialogue with ChatGPT, allowing them to approach projects from a research perspective. 

• Students will communicate their inquiry clearly and effectively by engaging with ChatGPT to review and revise their prompts and by using ChatGPT to identify potential areas for improvement, and evaluating the generated response for completeness and accuracy.
• Students will understand the ethical considerations of using ChatGPT for research around issues such as data privacy, security, and intellectual property rights.
• Students will understand the importance of ongoing learning in their topic area to discuss best practices and how they may be affected by ChatGPT.

Have each group use ChatGPT to generate a report summarizing and citing evidence from the scholarly literature about a specific clinical problem. 

Example Prompt - Citing evidence from the literature, what is the best nonpharmacological intervention for elderly patients to improve sleep?

Working with the generated response:

• Learners work in groups/pairs/individuals to read the generated response and evaluate it for accuracy, completeness, and usability.
• Learners will prepare a brief summary of their evaluation (how they examined the response and what they found) and present it to the class.

Questions to ask to learners after generating responses to discuss together:

• What was the initial prompt you gave to the system?
• Was the response generated by ChatGPT correct? 
  • If so, cite one article you found using a library database that supports ChatGPT's response.
  • If not, explain the error(s) and provide evidence to support your explanation.  
• Could you have had a better initial question to get a better response with fewer errors?
