2+academic_integrity: UCL uses a 3-category assessment framework for GenAI: Category 1 requires own work only; Category 2 permits GenAI with acknowledgement; Category 3 includes essential GenAI use as part of the assessment.
3+Evidence (en, c30c4bfc90ed): For Category 1, you might use GenAI tools to help you revise and prepare, but the work you complete for the assessment should be your own. In Category 2, you could use GenAI to get ideas, help draft your work, or even proofread... Category 3 is a lot like category 2, but there will also be some essential use of GenAI.
4+ai_tool_treatment: UCL designates Microsoft Copilot as its approved GenAI tool due to its enhanced data protection, positioning it as a more secure alternative to other GenAI services.
5+Evidence (en, 18a8d649f6ef): Microsoft Copilot is our approved GenAI tool because of its enhanced data protection. This tool is a more secure and safer alternative to other GenAI services.
6+academic_integrity: UCL defines academic misconduct in the context of GenAI as gaining an unfair advantage over other students; there is no single list of fair and unfair uses as it depends on the assessment category.
7+Evidence (en, c30c4bfc90ed): Academic integrity is about fairness. If somebody gets an unfair advantage over other students, we consider this academic misconduct. This means that there's no single list of fair and unfair uses of GenAI.
8+teaching: UCL provides Studiosity, a GenAI-powered service available 24/7 to all current students at all levels of study, to support academic writing and referencing skills.
9+Evidence (en, 18a8d649f6ef): UCL offers a service called Studiosity to support students with their academic writing and referencing skills. The platform uses GenAI and is available 24/7 to all current students, at all levels of study.
10+academic_integrity: UCL permits using GenAI to help with spelling, grammar, and language tone in assessments, but it must not change the content and meaning of what the student has written.
11+Evidence (en, c30c4bfc90ed): It's okay to use GenAI to help with spelling and grammar, and even with the tone of your language. However, make sure it isn't changing the content and meaning of what you've written. You should always understand the work you submit.
