AI Use in Assessments
All students MUST include an Al acknowledgement, even those who do not use it at all.
Al must not be used to generate the content of the evaluation. If used for assistance (e.g., brainstorming ideas, editing), it must be used ethically and responsibly, with full acknowledgment.
Failure to acknowledge Al use when it is evident will result in mark deductions.
If you used Al, you need to attach documentation of your chat history to your work. Failure will result in mark loss.
Even if you didn't use Al, please include a statement (see below).
How to Acknowledge AI Use
If you use Al in your assignments, include the following acknowledgment beneath your text or in your references (depending on the assignment):
I used [ADD Al tool] (<ADD link if needed>) to [ADD how used and for what purpose] (<ADD number> iterations/drafts). I modified the outputs [ADD what you included or modified].
I uploaded the documentation of my chat acivity/history and attached it to my work.
Examples:
- I used ChatGPT3.5 to refine the structure of my argument evaluation (5 iterations). I specfifically changed (enter specific structure changes here).
- I used ChatGPT 4.0 to improve my language in second paragraph, especially the sentences (insert here) 1 did not use it to generate content.
- I did not use Al in any way to complete these assignment.
