Can AI Help You Connect the Dots in Chemistry?

What if a better study guide could help you connect what you know instead of simply memorizing more information? In this episode of the Black-Liberation.Tech Podcast, Dr. Renée Jordan continues Module 3 of AI for Academic Success with Ashley, a first-year undergraduate studying General Chemistry I. We walk through Ashley's personalized STEM study guide prompt, designed to connect atomic structure, periodic trends, chemical bonding, and stoichiometry while strengthening scientific vocabulary, mathematical reasoning, and independent learning. The episode explores how identifying what you understand, where you're struggling, and what you want to learn can make an AI prompt more purposeful. We submit Ashley's prompt to Janiyah GPT, then pause before reviewing the generated study guide. That evaluation comes in the next episode. The goal is to use AI to support understanding—not replace the thinking required to learn chemistry.
