Academic Integrity
The University of Cologne Justitiariat says an exam or significant parts of an exam fully generated by AI are not an independent performance and are prohibited as deception.
Review: Agent reviewed
Normalized value: ai_generated_exam_work_prohibited_when_no_independent_performance
Original evidence
Evidence 1Werden die gesamte Prüfung oder bedeutende Teile davon vollständig mittels KI generiert, handelt es sich nicht um eine selbstständige Leistung ... und ist somit verboten. Es liegt eine Täuschung vor.
Localized display only
If an entire exam or significant parts are generated completely by AI, the Justitiariat says it is not independent work and is prohibited as deception.
Academic Integrity
The University of Cologne Justitiariat says current AI text detector software is not sufficient evidence of deception by itself; additional circumstances are needed to prove a deception act.
Review: Agent reviewed
Normalized value: ai_detector_results_not_sufficient_alone_for_deception
Original evidence
Evidence 1Aktuell gibt es jedoch keine verlässliche Methode KI-generierte Texte nachzuweisen. ... Diese stellen aber keinen ausreichenden Beleg für eine Täuschungshandlung dar. Für den Nachweis einer Täuschungshandlung müssen daher weitere Umstände hinzukommen.
Localized display only
The source says there is currently no reliable method to detect AI-generated text and detector software alone is not sufficient proof; further circumstances are needed.
Ai Tool Treatment
The University of Cologne Justitiariat says AI use in examinations is not objectionable under examination law when the student still produces their own independent work.
Review: Agent reviewed
Normalized value: ai_use_may_be_allowed_when_independent_work_remains
Original evidence
Evidence 1Wird KI hingegen so genutzt, dass noch eine eigene Leistung erbracht wird, spricht prüfungsrechtlich nichts gegen eine Nutzung von KI in Prüfungen.
Localized display only
Where AI is used in a way that still leaves an independent student performance, the Justitiariat says examination law does not speak against AI use in exams.
Academic Integrity
For term papers, theses, take-home exams, papers, and similar work, the University of Cologne Justitiariat says AI use is generally possible if independent work remains, and examiners may require disclosure of both the AI use and the related prompts depending on the use.
Review: Agent reviewed
Normalized value: takehome_ai_use_possible_with_independent_work_and_possible_prompt_disclosure
Original evidence
Evidence 1In Haus- und Abschlussarbeiten ist die Nutzung ... grundsätzlich möglich, solange noch eine eigenständige Leistung erbracht wird. ... Je nach Einsatz der KI kann durch die Prüfenden verlangt werden, dass nicht nur die Verwendung, sondern auch die zugehörigen Abfragebefehle (Prompts) offengelegt werden.
