Academic Integrity

Macquarie student guidance categorises assessment tasks as Open or Observed: Open tasks allow generative AI with acknowledgement and student responsibility, while Observed tasks may restrict or prohibit AI use.

Review: Agent reviewedConfidence95%

Normalized value: assessment_open_or_observed_open_acknowledge_observed_restricted_or_prohibited

原始证据

Evidence 1
Your assessment tasks will be categorised as either Open or Observed. Open assessments do not restrict the application of AI tools. However, it is expected that the use of AI is acknowledged in an appropriate manner... Observed tasks are either fully or partly observed or invigilated. AI use will either not be permitted or might be restricted in a particular way during the assessment.

本地化显示 only

Assessment AI permissions are task-specific: Open allows AI with acknowledgement; Observed may restrict or prohibit it.
