Please review the attached document for directions that need to be returned by Thursday at midnight.
Feedback Discussion: Drafting Your Research Area Primer
Thank you for sharing your outline. It is very detailed and demonstrates a strong understanding of how artificial intelligence (AI) impacts human resources (HR), encompassing both technical aspects and human experiences.
Clarity and Structure of Your Outline
Your outline is easy to follow, and I appreciate how you organized your discussion into three main parts: the technological changes brought about by AI, the importance of focusing on people, and the overall outcomes for organizations. This approach nicely balances the technical systems, the human element, and the results, making it straightforward for readers to follow. One suggestion would be to streamline your introduction so that it clearly highlights these three main parts right from the beginning. This will help guide the reader.
Sources and Emerging Trends
You have a strong list of sources that cover both ideas about ethics and trust in AI, as well as practical findings on measuring performance and return on investment (ROI). I noticed that many of your sources highlight the importance of employee trust and how cultural differences affect perceptions of AI, which is a key theme. To make these trends more straightforward, consider organizing your references by specific themes in your table, such as “Trust & Acceptance,” “Productivity & Engagement,” and “Ethical/Legal Concerns.” This will help emphasize the typical patterns you have found.
Discussion on Human-Centric Considerations
Your paragraph about trust and acceptance is engaging and well-supported by various sources. For the final version, you could make it even stronger by adding a brief example, discussing how a well-known tech company like Google or Microsoft has navigated different attitudes toward AI in various regions. This would connect your theoretical insights to real-world situations and show the practical impact of your findings.
Overall, your draft sets solid groundwork for your primer. The next important step is to bring together the ideas from different authors, not just by stating what each one says, but by showing how they relate to one another, where they agree, or where they differ. This deeper connection will truly showcase your understanding of trends in this field.
Discussion: Revising Your Research Area Primer due by Thursday, 10/02/2025. Please read the feedback above.
Purpose
This assignment is intended to help you learn to do the following:
· Reflect on feedback.
· Revise writing to improve cohesiveness and effectiveness.
Action Items
1. Use the feedback you received from your peers and instructor in the
Discussion: Drafting Your Research Area Primer assignment to comprehensively revise your Research Area Primer. Comprehensive revision means that you should expand significantly on the previous draft by further expanding body paragraphs from the initial outline, add and develop two additional research themes of 1-2 paragraphs each, and providing annotations for each theme.
2. By the due date indicated, post your revised document and respond to the following prompts:
a. What value did peer and instructor feedback contribute to your Research Area Primer?
b. In what ways did you incorporate the feedback you received from your peers and instructor?
