Academic Integrity

RWTH's scenario catalog states that assessment of examination work using AI systems is not permissible at the present time, while limited help drafting feedback may be conceivable if it gives the AI no decision-making role, transfers no personal data, and is finally checked by humans.

Valeur normalisée: ai_exam_assessment_not_permissible_limited_feedback_support_possible

Preuve originale

Preuve 1
Zum gegenwärtigen Zeitpunkt ist deshalb die Bewertung von Prüfungsleistungen mithilfe von KI-Systemen unzulässig. Eine begrenzte Unterstützung bei der Ausformulierung von Rückmeldungen, die keinerlei Entscheidungskompetenz beim KI-System verortet, keine personenbezogenen Daten überträgt und in jedem Fall abschließend von Menschen überprüft wird, ist hingegen denkbar.

RWTH says AI-based assessment of exam work is currently impermissible; limited support drafting feedback may be conceivable only with no AI decision role, no personal data transfer, and final human review.

Appels d'offres

RWTH's scenario catalog says external AI systems may be used for university tasks only with attention to legal conditions, and that deployment or procurement of external services requires data-protection and other legal clarifications plus staff co-determination where employee services are involved.

Valeur normalisée: external_ai_requires_privacy_legal_procurement_checks

Preuve originale

Academic Integrity

RWTH's exam-related questions document treats unauthorized use of AI systems in exams as an attempt to deceive, but says suspicion should not primarily be based on automatic AI-detector evaluation.

Valeur normalisée: unauthorized_ai_exam_use_deception_ai_detectors_not_primary_basis

Preuve originale

Preuve 1
Generell stellt der unzulässige Einsatz von KI-Systemen einen Täuschungsversuch dar. Konnte ein solcher Täuschungsversuch nicht direkt beobachtet werden, liegt ein Täuschungsverdacht vor. Nach aktuellem Stand kann ein solcher Täuschungsverdacht dabei nicht primär auf die Bewertung durch ein automatisches System zur KI-Detektion gestützt werden.

RWTH says unauthorized AI use is a deception attempt, but suspicion should not primarily rest on automatic AI-detector evaluation.
