8 reviewed claims

Deakin guidance says generative AI may be used as a starting point for some study tasks, but not to write the final assessment or do the work being assessed. Students should acknowledge genAI use that contributed to developing assessment work, including the tool, access date, prompts, output, and where it was used. For HDR theses, generative AI use is limited to copyediting and proofreading. Deakin lists approved genAI and digital learning tools including Deakin GEM, Studiosity+, Microsoft Copilot for web, and FeedbackFruits.
