Abstract
This study explores AI integration in graduate research. I am an academic supervisor of a graduate student working on a thesis on AI use in high schools in Indonesia. We team up to share our experiences of the process. We employed an autoethnographic approach to reflect on our AI practices, conducting structured interviews and observational sessions to examine our use of AI in research. We use Cultural-Historical Activity Theory (CHAT) and Situated Cognition as theoretical frameworks to guide our analysis. We highlight potential practical challenges, relationship dynamics, and contextual factors, including our university’s support in terms of guidelines and ethical considerations. Anticipated findings include highlighting the roles of mentor-student dynamics, ethical practices, and the context-sensitive integration of AI. Our goal in the paper is to provide authentic insights from our reflection and analysis, offering valuable recommendations for others in a similar context when navigating AI integration.
