Tracing GenAI Literacy: Uncovering Student-AI Interaction Patterns in Academic Writing through Epistemic Network Analysis
A new study published on arXiv explores how students interact with generative AI tools in academic writing. Researchers used Epistemic Network Analysis on interaction logs from 162 university students to identify patterns related to GenAI literacy. The findings suggest that students with higher literacy engage in more iterative questioning and refinement, while those with lower literacy tend to use direct generation commands. AI
