How to ask better questions in Academic Question mode
The more clearly you frame your question, the better tlooto can help.
Here are some good examples to get you started:
🔸 To build a thesis-worthy question:
“I want to write a master's thesis on the ethical use of AI in education. Can you suggest a clear, focused, graduate-level research question?”
🔸 When preparing a literature review:
“I'm working on a literature review about digital transformation's impact on small businesses. Could you help me form a clear research question?”
🔸 If you're refining a broad idea:
“My topic is how social media affects teenagers, but that's too broad. Can you narrow it into a clear academic question with defined scope?”
🔸 To guide a research proposal:
“I’m preparing a PhD proposal on algorithmic bias in hiring systems. Can you provide a precise, research-focused question with clear depth?”
