Generative A.I. – Pedagogy Resources

The following resources—from universities across the country—offer advice for students and faculty facing questions about the use of generative A.I. at their institutions. Regardless of origin, each emphasize the following points:

  • Generative A.I. apps are powerful tools with much potential, but also pitfalls.
  • Generative A.I. cannot be relied upon to produce factual, scholarly information or research.
  • Faculty should be clear about their policies regarding the use of generative A.I. in the classroom.
  • Students should make certain their use of these tools does not violate their instructors’ stated guidelines or academic integrity policies for their institution as a whole.
