ANALYSIS PLAN

Phase 1: Video Content Extraction

Tools: summarize CLI (YouTube support) + manual review

For each video:

  1. Extract full transcript using summarize CLI
  2. Generate structured summary
  3. Identify individual student presentations
  4. Extract research topics and findings
  5. Document methodology used by students

Command:

summarize "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VIDEO_ID" --youtube auto --length xxl

Phase 2: Research Project Analysis

For each student group presentation:

ElementData to Extract
Research QuestionWhat did they investigate?
MethodologyHow did they conduct research?
Data SourcesWhat data did they use?
Key FindingsWhat did they discover?
RecommendationsWhat do they propose?
DisciplineWhat subject area?
InnovationNovel approach or finding?

Phase 3: Synthesis and Pattern Recognition

Cross-conference analysis:

Phase 4: Positive Examples Documentation

Selection criteria for highlighting:

  1. Methodological rigor - Sound research design
  2. Novel findings - Original contributions
  3. Practical impact - Applicable recommendations
  4. Interdisciplinary - Cross-field collaboration
  5. Presentation quality - Clear communication
  6. Ethical awareness - Responsible research conduct

RESEARCH VALUE ASSESSMENT

Why This Data Matters

  1. Underrepresented Voice

    • Student perspectives on academic integrity under-researched
    • First-hand experience of assessment/AI challenges
    • Peer insights often more credible to other students
  2. Longitudinal Data

    • 2023: Pre-ChatGPT explosion context
    • 2024: Early GenAI adaptation
    • 2025: Post-GenAI normalization
    • Track changing attitudes and concerns
  3. Interdisciplinary Diversity

    • STEMM students from various disciplines
    • Cross-pollination of ideas
    • Discipline-specific integrity challenges
  4. Research-in-Action

    • Students learning research methods
    • Applying to real integrity issues
    • Authentic assessment example
  5. Underutilized Resource

    • Publicly available but little analyzed
    • Rich qualitative data
    • Replicable student research examples
