11 # University of Pretoria AI policy record
2+academic_integrity: University of Pretoria Library guidance states that submitting AI-generated content as one's own work without explicit lecturer permission and proper disclosure constitutes academic misconduct under UP's Academic Integrity Policy.
3+Evidence (en, aa9eaee56cdb): Submitting AI-generated content as your own work — whether in whole or in part, whether modified or unmodified — without explicit permission from your lecturer and proper disclosure, constitutes academic misconduct under UP's Academic Integrity Policy and may result in serious disciplinary consequences.
4+ai_tool_treatment: University of Pretoria Library guidance states that module-level AI rules in the assignment brief and module outline take precedence, and students should ask their lecturer when in doubt.
5+Evidence (en, aa9eaee56cdb): AI policies at UP are evolving. The guidance on this page reflects UP's current position on academic integrity and the use of generative AI tools. Always check your specific assignment brief and module outline for module-level AI rules — these take precedence. When in doubt, ask your lecturer before you submit.
6+academic_integrity: University of Pretoria Library guidance states that students must disclose any use of AI tools in academic work and provide enough information for readers to understand the role AI played.
7+Evidence (en, e1416ef31601): Regardless of the citation format, the fundamental principle remains constant: you must disclose any use of AI tools in your academic work and provide sufficient information for readers to understand the role AI played in your research and writing process.
8+academic_integrity: University of Pretoria Library guidance tells students to assume AI use is prohibited unless explicit permission exists and to seek documented authorization before using AI tools in academic work.
9+Evidence (en, 3fccd17e8566): Absence of explicit permission means prohibition. Never assume AI use is acceptable because it wasn't specifically forbidden. Always seek documented authorization before using any AI tools in academic work. Unauthorized use results in academic misconduct charges regardless of intent or assumptions.
10+teaching: A University of Pretoria student guide recommends treating generative AI as a supplementary learning aid rather than a replacement for thorough research and academic rigour.
11+Evidence (en, 3831df66fba5): Use as a supplementary tool: Treat generative AI as an aid to expand your knowledge, enhance your critical thinking, and assist with generating ideas rather than as a replacement for thorough research and academic rigour.
12+privacy: A University of Pretoria student guide states that personal or confidential data should not be included when using generative AI technologies in the classroom.
13+Evidence (en, 3831df66fba5): Ensuring Data Privacy and Confidentiality: When using generative AI technologies in the classroom, it is crucial to ensure that personal or confidential data is not included in the training data, as the AI could unintentionally reproduce or leak sensitive information.
