Designing a School Survey With AI (Without Wrecking the Data)
AI can write you 20 survey questions in 10 seconds. Most of them will be biased garbage. Here's how to use it right.
What to actually do
- Avoid 'don't you think…' or 'isn't it true that…' phrasing
- Use a 5-point scale, not 1-10 (people overuse the middle on long scales)
- Pilot it on 3 friends first to catch confusing wording
Key terms in this lesson
The big idea: Good survey questions look simple but take real work. AI helps you check for bias — not make decisions for you.

Wikipedia Is Your Friend (When You Use It Right)
Wikipedia gets a bad rap in school, but it's still one of the best places to start a research project. The trick is knowing how — not whether — to use it. But the rule is more nuanced than "never use it." Smart researchers — including AI researchers — start at Wikipedia and use it as a launchpad to better sources.

Primary Sources vs Secondary Sources
A primary source is the original — the first-hand account or original data. A secondary source describes or analyzes a primary source. Smart researchers use both, but they know the difference.
