Evidence 1We recommend that all faculty include a clear statement on their syllabus about course expectations regarding the use of Google Gemini or any other GenAI tool for course-related work. In the absence of such a statement, students may be more likely to use these technologies inappropriately or fail to utilize them effectively as a learning tool.

Evidence 1GenAI detection tools are increasingly less accurate; there are no validated GenAI detection tools. Therefore, assignments or learning activities where GenAI is not permitted should consider adopting one or more of the following solutions: Written Statement of Academic Integrity; In-person proctored exams/activities; An additional interview component (or oral exam) to an assignment where students are graded on an explanation of their work.

Evidence 1When assignments in the course permit or incorporate the use of GenAI tools, the assignment will ask you to include an acknowledgement of your use of any type of GenAI in your submitted work and share the prompts and outputs utilized at the time of submission. The suggested format is as follows: I acknowledge the use of [insert AI system(s) and link] to [specific use of GenAI]. The prompts used include [list of prompts]. The output from these prompts was used to [explain the use].
