标准化值: course_outlines_should_state_genai_expectations

原始证据

证据 1
Undergraduate and graduate course outlines should include a statement on the acceptable and unacceptable use of generative artificial intelligence in the course... If no syllabus statement is included, students should ask the educator for clarification on expectations, and if generative AI use is permitted, receive written confirmation before using generative AI in the course.

Academic Integrity

McMaster's student generative AI coursework tip sheet tells students not to use generative AI unless a course syllabus or professor explicitly allows it, and to disclose and cite AI-generated content when allowed.

证据 1
Generative AI tools should not be used to provide grades (letter or numeric) for student work. Generative AI tools may be used to provide feedback on student work, provided the following conditions are met: When generative AI tools are used to provide feedback of student work this use must be explicitly included in the course syllabus. Students should have the ability to opt-out of AI generated feedback.

隐私

McMaster's operational excellence generative AI guidelines tell employees not to upload confidential, personal, personal health, or proprietary information to a generative AI tool unless required security/privacy assessments have been completed, while noting an enterprise Microsoft Copilot exception when logged in with McMaster credentials.
