Generative AI tools do not “think” like humans, can offer inaccurate responses to prompts, and should not be trusted without follow-up research. The AI tool is not “the author” of its output. AI-generated output contains no original work or ideas. These tools draw exclusively on content generated by authors who were the creators of original work, but whose identities and qualifications have been lost. The use of AI tools cannot replace academic study, critical thinking, and problem-solving that students need to do themselves to develop effective academic and life skills.
In this course, the following AI policy will be enforced:
Restrictive Policy
AI-assisted writing systems (including but not limited to ChatGPT, Google Bard, Microsoft Bing/Copilot, etc.) may not be used in this course and will be considered cheating under the university's Academic Honesty Policy.
Limited or Mixed-Use Policy
Limited use of artificial intelligence (AI) for grammar correction, rephrasing sentences, brainstorming, and other things specified by the instructor may be permissible in some assignments. However, there may be other assignments where AI technology will be disallowed. Pay close attention to instructor guidance regarding the permissibility of generative AI technology for each assignment in this course. Failure to properly cite the use of AI, or use AI in assignments where is has been disallowed, will be considered cheating under the university's Academic Honesty Policy.
Permissive Policy
Artificial intelligence (AI) technology may be used to maximize student productivity in assignments for this course. However, the use of these technologies should be properly referenced within the assignment. Failure to properly cite the use of AI, or use AI in assignments where is has been disallowed, will be considered cheating under the university's Academic Honesty Policy.
