Please consider adding one of the following recommended statements about AI use to your syllabus. Some faculty chose to add more detail but at a minimum, this serves as a starting place to help your students understand your AI policy.

AI Use is encouraged and allowed in your course:

You may use generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools (such as ChatGPT) in this class, as doing so aligns with our course learning goals. Your use of AI tools must be properly documented and cited. You are responsible for ensuring the information you submit based on an AI query does not contain misinformation, unethical content, or violate intellectual property laws. Submission of AI-generated content as your own work is a violation of academic integrity and may result in referral to the Office of Student Conduct. Please contact your instructor if you have questions regarding this course policy.

AI use is allowed only for specific assignments: 

You may not use traditional artificial intelligence tools (such as Grammarly) or generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools (such as ChatGPT) to assist or produce work for this class EXCEPT on assignments specified in class or on the syllabus. The instructor will provide more information as appropriate. You may not, however, construe this limited use as permission to use these technologies in any other facet of this course. Submission of AI-generated content as your own work is a violation of academic integrity and may result in referral to the Office of Student Conduct. Please contact your instructor if you have questions regarding this course policy.

AI use is prohibited in your course:

The use of generative AI tools (such as ChatGPT) is strictly prohibited in this course for any purpose. Information gathered from AI cannot be used even with appropriate citation. Submission of AI-generated content (i.e., information, text, or images) as your own work is a violation of academic integrity and may result in referral to the Office of Student Conduct. Please contact your instructor if you have questions regarding this course policy.
