Three investigations

Practice decisions, not only rules.

Each case asks learners to inspect evidence, choose an interpretation, receive explanatory feedback, and recover from mistakes. A complete case generally takes 15 to 30 minutes.

Case 01

The Rewritten Page

Responsible AI use, disclosure, assignment rules, academic integrity, and distributed responsibility.

Case 02

The Citation That Never Existed

Fabricated sources, mismatched identifiers, misquotation, relevance, and independent verification.

Case 03

The Borrowed Voice

Consent, representation, attribution, hidden labor, bias, power, and proportionate institutional responses.

Critical AI literacy in practice

Inspect the evidence. Make the choice. Revise the judgment.
