Patterns & learnings
  • Some emerging patterns/learnings from the Bay Area this snapshot in time (February 2025):
  • Leadership: Faculty engaged in AI learning and policy development, including at multiple colleges’ Librarians curating resources/on Senate AI task forces with other discipline faculty including many Distance Education/Instructional Design/ZTC/OER faculty and staff, as well as faculty from ICT/DM, Business, Comms, Engineering. In some cases AI discussion is led by student clubs and student journalism!
  • Learning: Faculty and staff are not reinventing the wheel. Adapting from 2-year & 4-year early adopters in gathering teaching & learning, as well as policy resources, particularly those shared at the California Online Teaching conference.
  • Language: Developmental pattern appears to be: syllabus based/existing academic integrity policy to AI policy. SJCC (syllabus), Foothill (draft) & West Valley “AI use range”, & DVC provide potential examples. SMCCCD mini conference is a PD model, robustly developed by their PD team, primarily BIPOC faculty and staff in the Distance Ed/Instructional Design teams.
  • Lessons: Several colleges might need intentional and curated support with resources, while others can likely provide exemplars and/or peer to peer support, particularly important to support/resource multi-college districts and their College and District Senates.

  • NO AI: Recent advancements in generative artificial intelligence (AI) have made large language models such as ChatGPT and Google's Bard widely available. However, overuse of these tools in this class can undermine your learning and curtail the development of your critical and creative thinking skills. In addition, AI outputs are often unreliable and frequently subject to bias. For these reasons, the policy of this class is that AI cannot be used at any point in the completion of class assignments, including discussion posts. Any or all of your assignment submissions and discussion posts may be screened by AI detection software, but the real penalty for AI misuse is that you will miss out on an opportunity to learn.
  • Per Assignment: Recent advancements in generative artificial intelligence (AI) have made large language models such as ChatGPT and Google's Bard widely available. Sometimes, using these tools appropriately can help us overcome barriers and allow us to focus on deeper learning. However, overuse of these tools can undermine the development of our critical and creative thinking skills. In addition, AI outputs are often unreliable and frequently subject to bias. For these reasons, it is sometimes appropriate and sometimes inappropriate to use generative AI in the completion of assignments or in discussion posts. For this class, please see the specific assignment instructions for guidance on how and when generative AI tools may be used appropriately as we're working on and learning from a particular assignment. Also, please keep in mind that you are responsible for anything you submit; please carefully review all AI-generated outputs, screening them for accuracy, bias, appropriateness, and fidelity to your perspective.
  • Liberal AI: Generative AI tools, such as ChatGPT and Google's Bard, are likely to be widely used in the workplace moving forward. It's important for you to understand how to use them ethically and effectively. For that reason, in this class, you will sometimes be invited to use such a tool in the completion of an assignment. In this class, using generative AI tools is not cheating if the outputs are screened by you for accuracy, bias, appropriateness, and fidelity to your perspective.

Patterns & learnings
  • Some emerging patterns/learnings from this snapshot in time (February 2025):
  • Leadership: Similar to BA, NFN, differentiated college community approaches, senate, and faculty/staff engagement, again library faculty and staff, distance education, DSPS, instructional designers (where present), academic technology, and discipline faculty are engaged within many communities
  • Learning: Multiple colleges have nourished process with development of PD/learning resources for students and faculty alike, intentional support is also requested and could support those colleges earlier in the process. Supporting peer to peer connection, particularly for early-in-process and/or stuck-in-process might be most welcome, especially peers and exemplars
  • Language: Policies are underway in many communities, again developmental process appears to be use of academic integrity by each professor towards college senate development of guiding syllabus language to adopted policy.

  • Last year a senate ad hoc committee was created and folks joined based on interest.
  • The ad hoc committee developed the language concerning cheating and plagiarism which is currently in our college catalog; it is currently thinking of revising that language (removing it from the plagiarism section) and expanding the scope of the policy to cover acceptable uses for both faculty and students.
  • The committee is also planning to run a faculty survey to gain insight on how AI is used and perceived around campus. Future projects may involve AI workshops, though several Clovis faculty run workshops at other campuses in our district

  • Feb 2025 Library Guide Citations - APA: Artificial Intelligence: AI
  • Using ChatGPT or other generative AI in your assignments
  • Confirm with your course coordinator or check your course syllabus before using Artificial Intelligence (AI) in your assessment. Some instructors do not permit the use of AI tools, while others may allow AI with some limitations.
  • Any permitted use of AI for assessment must be acknowledged appropriately. Your course instructor will provide guidance on how to reference the use of AI tools. Some possible examples include:
  • Citing or referencing in the text or list of references
  • Inclusion in your methodology
  • An appendix including a full transcript of any prompts and AI-generated responses.
  • Sample AI Policies by Course/Discipline
  • June 2024 Nursing Program
  • Artificial Intelligence (AI) Policy The purpose of this policy is to ensure the academic integrity and originality of writing assignments, while also allowing students to use AI tools to enhance the learning experience. Faculty will set expectations for the use of AI in their specific assignments including explicit direction as to when students cannot use AI. In general, students may utilize generative AI as a tool, resource, or consultant and not as a replacement for their own knowledge synthesis, reasoning, or self-reflection.
  • Students are expected to adhere to the following:
  • If generative AI is used for an assignment, it must be appropriately cited.
  • Students are responsible for any inaccurate, biased, offensive, or otherwise unethical content they submit regardless of whether they personally authored it or used AI software to generate the content.
  • Students may not create H&Ps or patient care documentation within the authentic clinical environment using artificial intelligence applications outside of those supported by the EHR (e.g., dot phrases, smart phrases, other system-generated text). Protected health information should never otherwise be used within a generative AI tool.
  • Students may not copy and paste system or course session materials, presentation slides, or exam questions into AI systems consistent with copyright and intellectual property rights.
  • When submitting scholarly work for publication or presentation, students must adhere to generative AI policies set forth by journals and organizations and disclose when and how these tools have been used.
  • If a student is found to have inappropriately utilized generative AI, the student will be subject to the nursing program Academic Dishonesty Policy.
  • 2021-2026 Los Angeles Community College District (LACCD)Innovation and Technology Plan
  • “Increase technology modernization and innovation….
  • 2.4. Embrace new technology options for enhanced learning such as Simulation Technology, Artificial Intelligence, Virtual Reality”
  • Nov 2021 “Proposed LAHC policy on Student Academic Honesty: Los Angeles Harbor College is committed to preparing students to compete confidently and effectively in a rapidly changing, information-driven, technological global community. Students are expected to be honest and ethical. No acceptable rationale for dishonesty can be based on physical, emotional or learning challenges. The college expects that students do their own academic work. Acceptable academic conduct does not include cheating, plagiarism or any other unethical academic behavior.It is the student’s responsibility to know what conduct is academically honest.”

  • Spring 2025 Syllabus Checklist
  • Statement Regarding the Use of AI Programs
  • Many assignments require writing, research, and/or sharing your ideas. The vast amount of information available online means that it can be hard to distinguish accurate from inaccurate sources. Websites are not always credible and sometimes reflect a biased viewpoint intended to sway the reader’s opinion. Similarly, AI tools (such as ChatGPT) may spread misinformation and falsehoods. When you do outside research, be sure to use reputable sources, such as peer-reviewed journal articles, government websites, or credible news articles. All outside sources must be properly cited in APA or MLA format.
  • Importantly, always share what you learn in your own words, in a way that makes sense to you and in a way that is relevant to the assignment. The use of AI to write your posts is considered plagiarism because it is not your original writing. Plagiarism-detecting software (TurnItIn) and AI-detecting software (OpenAI Detector) may be used to analyze your submissions for originality. Any evidence of plagiarism will result in a zero on the assignment and possible further disciplinary action.
  • Additional AI Policy Statement Examples (internal drive)
  • November 2024, the Pierce College Academic Senate adopted a new code of conduct regarding AI usage in classrooms. This policy grants professors the discretion to permit or prohibit AI tools in their courses. Academic Senate Meeting Notes

  • Generative Artificial Intelligence for Students
  • “Best Bet: Until Valley College and the LACCD come up with comprehensive guidelines regarding student use of AI tools, your best bet for knowing when to use AI for college (and how to cite it) is to simply ask your instructor. Many instructors are now including AI guidelines in their syllabus, but if you don't see it there, you can always ask your instructor directly.
  • If you have been falsely accused of cheating with AI, please refer to the information here.
  • Keep in mind, as with all things related to AI, the norms and conventions for citing AI-generated content are likely to evolve over the next few years. For now, some of the major style guides have released preliminary guidelines, which we will outline below.”
  • Artificial Intelligence Toolkit for Faculty advises Faculty:
  • “Establishing Policies
  • Faculty may decide when and how to permit student use of AI in classwork. Your best bet is to establish clear policies upfront that your students can easily locate in your syllabus and in Canvas. Policies range from outright bans of the technologies to those that allow and even encourage AI usage. For example, the University of Delaware offers four possible approaches to student use of these tools (and each approach may be context-specific):
  • Prohibit all use of these tools
  • Allow their use only with prior permission
  • Allow their use only with explicit acknowledgment
  • Freely allow their use
  • The Eberly Center at Carnegie Mellon University offers some additional examples of syllabus language for your consideration.

  • BP2/AP 42903 should be evaluated for a potential update. This workgroup recommends adopting language that makes it clear that the unethical use of AI is plagiarism. For example, in AP 4290, it is noted that “Cheating includes but is not limited to […] Presenting another person’s work as your own […]” We recommend editing said language to strike the word “person” to implicitly include AI. Alternatively, a new bullet point could be adopted to specifically note that work generated by AI and deployed as one’s own is a form of academic dishonesty.

  • “The following can serve as a helpful template for syllabi statements or longer explanations regarding the use of AI in your courses. It is always up to each instructor to determine how and where students can use AI in their courses. It is important to state whether AI usage is allowed at all, and if so, it is helpful to provide guidelines such as these.
  • Sample syllabus statement:
  • While the use of Artificially Intelligent chatbots (such as ChatGPT, hereafter just “AI”) will be permitted to some degree in this course, the two most important things to remember are:
  • You MUST always cite when and where you have used AI in your work.
  • The work you submit, overall, must be your own, unique work. Here is a simple breakdown of what you can and cannot use AI for in this course:
  • You CAN use AI to o give suggestions on how to fix your grammar or make your writing sound better;
  • help you organize your work and give you suggestions on how to answer a question;
  • help you create an outline or summary of your work;
  • help you do research;
  • help you figure out where to expand on your ideas or where your argument is weak;
  • You CANNOT
  • submit assignments that are primarily written by AI;
  • use AI generated content in any way in the following assignments: ;
  • submit AI generated summaries or outlines as your own;
  • fail to properly cite where and how you used AI.
  • Extended information that can be placed on Canvas, the syllabus, or elsewhere: AI is improving every day and will transform how a lot of work, especially writing and education, is done.
  • Turning in an assignment that is primarily, or completely written by an AI, is not doing your own work, and in violation of academic integrity standards.
  • Because of their very recent rise in popularity, I will be allowing the use of AI in this course according to the following guidelines, which have been generated using the help of ChatGPT.
  • I asked it to generate guidelines for its use in a college course that includes critical thinking and edited what it gave me to help you use it while maintaining academic integrity and critical thinking:
  • The use of AI generated content will be allowed on all assignments EXCEPT for . You should primarily use AI to help organize your thoughts and writing. You are highly discouraged from using them in any way for your discussion posts, however, as the primary point of the discussions is for you to get practice writing and thinking on your own.
  • Any use of AI writers MUST be cited. Include which one you used, when you used it, where you have used it in your assignment, and any other relevant information. Failure to acknowledge when and where you have used them will result in a 0 on the assignment. The ability to resubmit the assignment is at the instructor’s discretion.
  • Failure to meet the citation requirements in the assignments will result in a 0. This is to ensure that you are doing work on the assignment yourself, as AI cannot do this part of the assignment properly. The ability to resubmit the assignment is at the instructor’s discretion.
  • AI writers are tools for expanding your understanding but should not be used as a replacement for your own critical thinking and analysis and thus should not be relied upon to do the bulk of an assignment.
  • Do not trust AI and do not expect it to give you anything with real substance. You are responsible for your work, and you should double-check anything and everything it gives you.
  • Use AI as a starting point for discussion and analysis. Rather than accepting its responses uncritically, use them as a jumping-off point for further exploration and critical thinking. Consider how the responses align with or challenge your existing beliefs and theories.
  • Avoid relying solely on AI for answers to open-ended questions. While AI can provide useful insights, they may not be able to fully address the complexity of the issues. Use your own critical thinking skills and additional research to explore these issues in more depth.
  • Finally, remember that AI writers are machine learning tools designed to simulate human conversation. They are not a substitute for human interaction or discussion. Always seek out opportunities to engage with your peers and instructors to deepen your understanding of important concepts.”

Patterns & learnings
  • Some emerging patterns/learnings from this snapshot in time (February 2025):
  • Leadership: Again, strong engagement of Senates and district/college shared governance, including Professional Learning, Online Learning, Distance Learning, Academic Integrity Teams supporting college communities with learning about AI, policy development, and importantly implementation, particularly with intentional focus on equity (algorithmic equity) and accessibility (Cuyamaca, Grossmont, Miracosta).
  • Learning: Strong models of district/college learning infrastructure, including Professional Learning, Online Learning, Distance Learning, Academic Integrity Teams supporting in-person, online, and hyflex faculty learning. Some emerging shared leadership models of broader and more inclusive college-wide learning support Classified Professionals and Admins as well. (SDCCD, Miracosta PD: Faculty, Admin, and Classified Panel on AI in their College Work)
  • Language: College communities are grappling with the process of developing AI policy language. Spectrum of differentiated development continues: under existing code of conduct/academic honesty, professor to professor AI syllabus statements, and then development of AI-specific policies and language (Grossmont, Palomar, MiraCosta, and Miramar).

  • “Artificial Intelligence (AI) - particularly emerging generative AI tools capable of creating text, images, code, and more, such as ChatGPT, Google Gemini, and Microsoft Copilot - presents challenges and opportunities in teaching and learning.
  • Faculty approaches to the use of generative AI tools by their students will vary across and within classes based on learning outcomes, pedagogies, methods of assessment, and concerns about ethics and equity implications of AI tools.
  • This variance, and our academic freedom, means that it does not make sense to create a blanket college policy about AI usage.

  • Not yet found. Appears to rely on the student code of conduct academic integrity.
  • “Plagiarism is any conduct in academic work or programs involving misrepresentation of someone else’s words, ideas, or data as one’s original work including, but not limited to, the following:
  • Intentionally representing as one’s own work the work, words, ideas, or arrangement of ideas, research, formulae, diagrams, statistics, or evidence of another.
  • Taking sole credit for ideas and/or written work that resulted from collaboration with others.
  • Paraphrasing or quoting material without citing the source.”
  • submitting as one’s own a copy of or the actual work of another person, either in part or in entirety, without appropriate citation (e.g., term-paper mill or Internet-derived products).
  • Library Guide
  • COD Definition of Plagiarism
  • Syllabus Example (Comm 101)
  • “Academic Integrity
  • In accordance with College of the Desert’s Student Code of Conduct, cheating and plagiarism will not be tolerated. Incidents of cheating and/or plagiarism will result in a failing grade on the work and a report filed with the Office of Student Life.
  • Generative AI Policy
  • Generative AI tools may be able to help you generate ideas/topics for your assignments, formulate structure for your written work and speech outlines, and find existing research on the topic. These uses are permitted in this course. I will also permit you to use AI tools to edit your work and improve your use of language. If you use an AI tool in any of these ways to support your work, it must be included as a source/citation following APA or MLA styles. You cannot use the output from a generative AI tool as a reference when your work requires outside sources to support your thesis or central idea statement in a speech.
  • All of your writing in this course must be your own; you may not use AI text generators to write any portion of the written work you submit or for any portion of a speech you deliver. Using AI tools in this way will be treated as a case of plagiarism per the Academic Integrity policy above.”
  • Syllabus Example AIS 013 - Office Workplace Employment Preparation (Prof Michelle Richards)
  • Acceptable & Unacceptable Uses of AI
  • The use of generative AI tools (e.g. ChatGPT, Dall-e, etc.) is permitted in this course for the following activities:
  • Brainstorming and refining your ideas;
  • Fine tuning your research questions;
  • Finding information on your topic;
  • Drafting an outline to organize your thoughts; and
  • Checking grammar and style.
  • The use of generative AI tools is not permitted in this course for the following activities:
  • Impersonating you in classroom contexts, such as by using the tool to compose discussion board prompts assigned to you or content that you put into a Zoom chat.
  • Completinggroupworkthatyourgrouphasassignedtoyou,unlessitismutuallyagreedupon that you may utilize the tool.
  • Writing a draft of a writing assignment.
  • Writing entire sentences,paragraphs or papers to complete class assignments.
  • You are responsible for the information you submit based on an AI query (for instance, that it does not violate intellectual property laws, or contain misinformation or unethical content).
  • Your use of AI tools must be properly documented and cited in order to stay within college policies on academic honesty. For example, see the Library resources for APA guidance. Any assignment that is found to have used generative AI tools in unauthorized ways will be reviewed via COD Academic Integrity guidelines. When in doubt about permitted usage, please ask for clarification.
  • Adopted by permission, Temple University, Center for Advancement of Teaching
  • Syllabus Example KINE 010 - Personal & Community Health (Professor Yuen Tse)
  • “AI generated work
  • While artificial intelligence (AI) is widely used, AI-generated passages are someone else' works, thoughts and analysis. In this course, I would love to see your own thoughts, insights and ideas. How you organize your thoughts and put words together in a sentence communicate about you and it matters to me! Sometimes it can be hard to express yourself but it is a learning process. This course is to equip and challenge you to become a competent learner! Most of the assignments in this course require your very own reflections and analysis, rather than textbook facts and ideas. Therefore, AI-generated submissions are not permitted and will be treated as a violation of the standards of the COD Code of Academic Integrity. Use of ChatGPT (or other similar tools or software that generate suggested text) is not allowed in this class for any part of a graded assignment, including generation of ideas, writing of text, or rewriting your own work. Violations could result in failure of the assignment or failure of the course. AI-generated works will be graded zero and redo is not allowed.”
  • Syllabus Example PSY 001 - General Psychology (Professor Wendy Brooks, Psy.D.)
  • Policy on the Use of Generative AI in Written Assignments, Quizzes and Exams
  • Generative artificial intelligence (AI) is a relatively new technology that is rapidly developing. Like the internet in general, these AI tools, like ChatGPT or Gemini, are neither good or bad when it comes to accessing and utilizing information. Instead, they are a new way in which we can interact with information.
  • I highly recommend that students complete their own work. Despite this recommendation, many students choose to use AI tools to assist them in completing assignments. Overall, AI tools should be used wisely and reflectively to deepen their understanding of subject matter.
  • If using Generative AI, College of the Desert students are expected to adhere to the same standards as the Code of Conduct on plagiarism. Presenting generative AI software content as your own is a violation of academic integrity and you will receive an F on the assignment. If you use generative AI in your work, you must indicate that you have done so.
  • Students are not allowed to use AI tools during quizzes or exams.
  • In this course, if you choose to use Generative AI tools (which is strongly discouraged), students must give credit to the Generative AI tools whenever used, even if only to generate ideas.
  • If you choose to use Generative AI tools on written assignments, you must add an appendix showing:
  • the entire exchange with Generative AI, highlighting the most relevant sections.
  • a description of precisely which AI tools were used (e.g. ChatGPT private subscription version or DALL-E free version).
  • an explanation of how the AI tools were used (e.g. to generate ideas, create an outline, word choice, elements of text, long stretches of text, construction of argument, pieces of evidence, maps of the concepts, illustrations of key concepts, citations or any other use).
  • the reasons why AI tools were used (e.g. to save time, to surmount writer’s block, to stimulate thinking, to handle mounting stress, to clarify writing, to translate text, to experiment for fun, or any other reason).
  • you need to cite AI appropriately. APA has guidelines for citing AI.

  • Our Distance Ed department provided one workshop on generative AI basics but most of our efforts have been offered by the classified professional development committee and specifically one classified professional who facilitated three workshops.
  • Person 1 - We haven't. I took an interest in AI and started going to AI conferences and training, and I now present on AI at conferences and other colleges. Now, I work with the professional development coordinator to bring AI ideas to RCC as much as possible, but it's slow going.
  • Person 2 - The professional development coordinator and I have focused on AI chatbots and generative AI applications.
  • Person 2 - I provided training on prompting techniques for generative AI and an overview of AI in general. I am also doing an April AI Bingo event to get people involved.
  • The classified professional development committee plans to launch an AI April campaign. Some individuals are now using AI in their day-to-day tasks, but that is only two or three of us so far.
