Comprehensive Guide to Academic Material Preparation in the AI Era

Using AI Alone Does Not Produce a Report or Paper That Will Be Evaluated Well

Generative-AI and research-support tools such as ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, NotebookLM, and Elicit can help organize information and develop outlines. However, AI-generated text may still contain Fabricated references, unsourced explanations, overly general discussion, and inconsistency with submission rulessuch problems. What matters is not simply whether AI is used, but whether the evidence is verified and the material is refined into a form you can explain in your own words.

Find Literature

Gather evidence from reliable sources such as CiNii, J-STAGE, PubMed, university libraries, and government publications.

Build the Structure

Organize the material into a flow the reader can follow, such as introduction-body-conclusion or research purpose-methods-results-discussion.

Check Before Submission

Check citations, references, AI-specific unnatural wording, assignment conditions, and consistency with submission requirements.

Five Fundamentals to Understand First

01Break Down the Assignment Instructions

First organize what is being asked, which concepts should be used, and how much needs to be covered within the required length.

02Use AI as Assistance, Not as a Substitute for the Work

Do not delegate the entire assignment to AI. Limit its use to assistance with issue organization, search terms, outline ideas, and revision.

03Always Check Original Sources

For literature or statistics suggested by AI, verify existence, publication year, author name, journal, and URL.

04Separate Citations From Your Own Discussion

Cite other people's claims clearly and then state what you think about them.

05Perform a Pre-Submission Check

Check not only typographical errors but also logical gaps, insufficient references, AI-like wording, and submission rules.

Reliable Sources to Check

Rules for generative-AI use vary by university and course. Japan's Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology has published points for universities and colleges of technology to consider when handling generative AI in education, and the Agency for Cultural Affairs has published guidance on AI and copyright. For SEO, Google Search Central provides basic guidance on helping search engines understand content.

Common Checkpoints

Can I submit a report created with AI as it is?

We do not recommend submitting it without review. AI output requires fact checking, citation formatting, addition of your own discussion, and confirmation of the receiving institution's rules.

Which page should I read first?

For report basics, see Info 2; for undergraduate and master's theses, Info 3; for statistical analysis, Info 4; and for citations and references, Info 5.

Is there SEO value in adding more Useful Information pages?

Yes. Expert explanations aligned with search intent, appropriate internal links, and reliable reference sources can make it easier to strengthen the site's overall expertise and navigation.
