AI Statements Available for Syllabi

All syllabi need to include statements about the use of AI. The three general statements are listed below. You can use them, as is, or modify them for clarity for your specific courses. Keep in mind that AI can be used for more than writing. It can solve math, chemistry, and physics problems; write/translate computer code; and generate art/pictures, as well as other uses.

Select one of the following three statements that best fits your course, and edit, as needed for clarity within your specific course syllabus.

Broader Use of Generative AI Permitted Within Guidelines

Use of AI tools is permitted in this course for students who wish to use them. Students must cite any AI-generated material that informed their work (this includes in-text citations and/or use of quotations, and in your references list). Using an AI tool to generate content without proper attribution qualifies as academic dishonesty.

Use of Generative AI Permitted Under Some Circumstances or with Explicit Permission

During this class, we may use AI Writing tools. You will be informed as to when, where, and how these tools are permitted to be used, along with guidance for attribution. It is important to note that if AI tools are permitted to be used for an assignment, they should be used with caution and proper citation.

No Use of Generative AI Permitted

This course assumes that all work submitted by students will be generated by the students themselves, working individually or in groups. Students should not have another person/entity do the writing of any substantive portion of an assignment for them, which includes hiring a person or a company to write assignments and using AI tools.
