- 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.
