Evidence 1

Individual tools are approved for use with data at various risk levels – Low, Moderate, High, or Restricted – as defined in the UVM Data Classification Matrix When a service is listed as approved for a risk level, that means it is not approved for higher risk levels. For example, if a service is approved for “Low to High Risk”, that means it is not approved for Restricted data such as Protected Health Information or Controlled Unclassified Information.

Normalized value: No mandated one-size classroom AI approach; faculty should communicate course AI stance.

Original evidence

Evidence 1

Because of this, there isn’t a mandated, one-size-fits-all approach to AI in the classroom and, accordingly, classroom practices with AI vary. This flexibility allows you to start with your stance on AI and tailor your course appropriately—but it also means designing policies and assignments for students who are left grappling with different expectations from class to class. Each of us has an obligation to clearly communicate to students about how and why our stance on AI and other technology has shaped the course, its content, its assignment and/or its policies.

Original evidence

Evidence 1

For students, the most important question to ask in a course context is “what has my instructor said about the ways AI tools can be used in this class or assignment?” Expectations and opportunities will differ from class to class, as each set of assignments is carefully designed toward particular learning goals. Students should talk with their instructors, pay attention to policies on the syllabus, and note how assignment instructions reference technology use.
