Tipsheet: Encouraging Academic Integrity in the Era of Gen AI
Use best practices in course design & make AI policies clear
Dear Colleagues,
Advances in generative artificial intelligence (Gen AI) have complicated our efforts to foster and maintain academic integrity in instruction at UMBC. The FDC recently hosted a session entitled Encouraging Academic Integrity in the Era of AI to revisit best practices in course/assignment design; learn how to make policies around Gen AI use clear; and share strategies for dissuading students from inappropriate use of gen AI in light of the opportunities and temptations they present. Some of these ideas were also discussed in our Fall 2024 book discussions on Teaching with AI by Bowen and Watson. We heard that many of you were interested but unable to attend. Therefore, we've captured highlights from those shared at the session in our latest tipsheet.
