AI Tools
Most of the tools linked on this page are built with Large Language Models (LLMs) LLMs can be helpful to strategize search terms and phrases, as well as recommend article databases. Create your prompt to include context and intention.
This prompt, for example, "How can I search for articles about translanguaging for my literature review?" is highly subjective.
Instead, be explicit about your research context: "Identify search terms to locate peer-reviewed articles and empirical studies on the topic of translanguaging in elementary classrooms in the United States."
Refer to this article for more information about constructing a prompt.
