Extended Essay practice: Use academic integrity, citation, paraphrase, and AI boundaries
A student is using sources, notes, and allowed digital tools for an EE about "how drought messaging affected household water-use habits". Choose the route that protects academic integrity while research continues. Select the integrity note, citation move, paraphrase boundary, and AI boundary. Then answer this in your own words: why would this route keep the EE research process focused and authentic? AI will analyse your reasoning, evidence, research judgement, documentation, reflection quality, and expression.
Worked practice: build the decision
Work through the Extended Essay decision: subject fit, evidence handling, analysis or synthesis, then an integrity or reflection check.
Write a full answer
Now write the response in full, in your own words — this is what the exam asks for. The AI marks it on the same moves you built above (focus, evidence, technique, judgement) and gives feedback on reasoning, evidence, and expression.
