GUIDELINES FOR USING AI IN THE COURSE
Responsible Use
AI is a tool that can enrich your learning experience when used responsibly and in accordance with these guidelines. It can support learning and independent thinking, but always remember to do your work yourself and learn through the process.

AI TO SUPPORT LEARNING
AI tools (such as ChatGPT) can be valuable resources in learning, but their use comes with responsibilities. AI can be used to support assignments within specific limits that promote learning and independent thinking. These guidelines must be followed in all course tasks.
This document is designed to help you learn responsibly and develop your skills using AI. If you have any questions, please contact your instructor.

PERMITTED USE
1. Brainstorming and Inspiration
You may use AI to develop ideas or explore different perspectives.
Example: Ask questions about a topic if you're unsure how to begin.

2. Supporting Learning
AI can be used to explain difficult concepts or help you understand new material.
Example: Request explanations of terms or concepts.
Editing and Grammar Assistance

3. You may use AI to improve your own writing.
Example: Request grammar checks, but ensure the content is your own work.

PROHIBITED USE
1. Producing Complete Assignments
You must not copy AI-generated answers directly into your assignments.
Example: Submitted assignments must not rely on AI outputs without your own analysis.

2. Misuse of Sources
Do not use references provided by AI without verifying their accuracy.
Example: AI may fabricate sources that do not exist.

3. Cheating and Plagiarism
Do not use AI to bypass the independent work required by the assignment.
Example: Assignments often aim to develop skills that AI cannot learn on your behalf.

4. Uncritical Acceptance
Do not accept AI-generated information without verifying and understanding it.
Example: If you don't understand the AI's response, it won't contribute to your learning.

WHAT TO REMEMBER WHEN USING AI
Always verify the information. AI is not infallible and can provide incorrect information.
Be critical. Consider whether the perspectives provided by AI are well-founded.
Use AI to support learning. Its purpose is not to replace your thinking or work.

CONSCUENSE OF MISUSE
Any use of AI that violates these guidelines will be considered academic misconduct and handled according to the institution's policies. For example, presenting AI-generated text as your own work is strictly prohibited.

DECLARING AI USE
Always disclose if you have used AI in completing an assignment.
This includes, for example:
Using AI to help generate ideas or edit text.
Indicating how and for what purpose AI was used to assist you in the task.
You can include this information as a note at the end of your assignment:
"AI (ChatGPT) was used to support idea generation."

Transparency about AI use promotes accountability and ensures that everyone operates under the same rules.
"AI (ChatGPT) was used as a support tool in the creation of these guidelines. AI was utilized to assist with text formulation and structural clarity, but the content and decisions are based on the expertise of the course's responsible instructor."
