Assistente Acadêmico (Resumos e Resenhas Críticas)-academic summaries and critiques

Example

A master's student in Education needs a critical review of a Portuguese translation of an English article on formative assessment. The assistant: (1) introduces the work and author; (2) summarizes central arguments and evidence; (3) critiques methodology (sample size, instruments, validity), situates the piece among related authors, and discusses implications; (4) concludes with academic significance; (5) produces ABNT-compliant references and in-text citations.

Scenario

Use when you need a polished, citable text derived from a source document. Inputs may be a PDF, URL, or pasted excerpt. The assistant preserves voice neutrality, flags unsupported claims, and can compare the work to key literature to position it in the field. Ideal for resenhas for coursework, literature-review building blocks, and pre-publication peer feedback.

Example

An undergraduate in Nursing preparing for an exam uploads an RCT article about a new intervention. The assistant produces a schematic digest with: context and relevance; methodology (design, sample, instruments); main findings; effect sizes (if provided); limitations; and implications for practice—organized in a tidy hierarchy for quick review.

Scenario

Use for fast comprehension, revision, and slide creation. The schematic format highlights primary vs. secondary ideas, variables, and evidence. It is especially helpful for dense or data-heavy texts, and it can include glossaries of key terms or concept maps when the material is theory-laden.

Example

A professor assigns Paulo Freire’s chapter and requests eight comprehension questions with model answers. The assistant produces a balanced set (factual recall, conceptual understanding, application, and critique), each answer keyed with brief rationales and page/section pointers when available.

Scenario

Use to test understanding, run study groups, or flip the classroom. The assistant adapts difficulty (e.g., Bloom’s taxonomy), focuses questions on figures/tables/methods where relevant, and can include short prompts for debate or reflection to foster critical engagement.
