Description¶

A lightning talk by Jiwoo Seo described a "15-week digital literacy curriculum" co-developed during their tenure as an AI Specialist Librarian at Chung-Ang University, "based on a survey of 2,076 students and 101 librarians". The curriculum addressed a critical gap by integrating GenAI tool usage with research ethics and critical thinking skills. It emerged from observing a trust gap in which students often over-trusted GenAI while faculty distrusted it, and it aims to empower users to act as critical reviewers rather than passive consumers.

Design Implications¶

Context¶

Requirements¶

sustainable educational frameworks that adapt to rapid AI advancements, since single-session workshops are insufficient

Constraints¶

Target Learners¶

university students and librarians

Learning Goals¶

GenAI literacy, research ethics, and critical thinking for academic search

Claims¶

Critical-ethical awareness plays a dual role: it negatively predicts general GenAI reliance but positively predicts shortcut reliance [~M]
