AI+ Research Workbook
Put AI to Work on Your Real Research
You understood the warning about hallucinated citations. Then you cited one anyway.
You read AI+ Academic Research and understood the warning about hallucinated citations — then cited one anyway. This workbook makes verification a reflex: 40 exercises on your own project, and three calibration drills that train you to catch a fabricated citation, an overstated synthesis, and a claim its source never made. Built by an AI engineering firm for researchers who want AI's speed without staking their name on a source that doesn't exist.
Inside
- 40 exercises on your own research — scoping, finding, evaluating, reviewing, synthesising, drafting, and citing.
- Three calibration drills that train you to catch a fabricated citation, an overstated synthesis, and a claim its source never made.
- The TRUST source-verification workflow, made reflex — existence, metadata, and claim-in-source, before you cite.
- A verified synthesis matrix that holds every claim to a source that genuinely supports it.
- A defensible integrity record — a disclosure statement and an account of what AI did and did not do.
Who this is for
Anyone whose work involves rigorous research and who has read (or is reading) AI+ Academic Research (T3-01): postgraduate and PhD students, academic researchers and lecturers, lawyers and paralegals, clinicians and evidence reviewers, policy analysts, journalists, and research-heavy consultants. Cross-industry by design. They want to convert the parent book's workflow into habit against their own real project.
Also for:Research supervisors, librarians, and research-methods trainers running the workbook as a cohort or CPD programme; postgraduate research-skills modules pairing it with the parent book.
You’ll be able to
- Has applied the Academic Research Prompt Toolkit and PRISM to a real research project across the full lifecycle — scoping, finding, evaluating, reviewing, synthesising, drafting, and citing
- Has applied TRUST to detect hallucinated and misattributed citations before relying on any AI-surfaced source, and caught seeded failures in calibration drills
- Has produced a real literature synthesis and a correctly cited draft section from their own project
- Has applied the AI Safety Checklist and research-integrity discipline to their own AI use, producing a defensible record of what AI did and did not do
