ethical usage

  • IF you have permission to use AI in your coursework, it needs to be CITED and REFERENCED. Please see next slide for an example.
  • Not respecting copyright or crediting the sources that it has used
  • Misuse of generative AI tools (e.g., plagarising, accepting falsified or fabricated information)
  • Remember to be CRITICAL

Things to consider

The purpose of any assessment is to measure what you have learned and understood from the modules and course being assessed. It is not possible to assess your understanding if you plagiarise, copy, and paste text, use AI, or paraphrase software

rEMEMBER!

If you have this permission, please see the referencing format example. Remember you must:1) Cite and reference any information generated by AI. 2) Follow all instructions given its use in the assignment brief.

rEferencing AI

OpenAI. (2023). ChatGPT (Mar 14 version) [Large language model]. https://chat.openai.com/chat

When prompted to 'provide some background information on JW Anderson', ChatGPT stated 'JWA is an internationally renowned and award-winning UK Fashion label that creates unisex clothing ' (OpenAI, 2023).

AI CITATION AND REFRENCING EXAMPLE

  • Inaccuracies
  • Bias
  • Academic Misconduct
  • Legal intellectual property rights
For Generative AI content, be aware of:

CRITICAL THINKING

  • How do the authors communicate?
  • How is the infomation presented?
  • What is the viewpoint?
  • Is there critical enagement?
  • What sources have they used? Do they look genuine?
  • Language
  • Structure
  • Argument
  • References
Think about

ARTICLE B

ARTICLE A

Compare the two articles. Which one do you think is AI generated? Why?

critical thinking activity

Try to be analytical, rather than descriptive. Ask 'why', rather than say 'what'. Use the REVIEW framework to help you. Further information about this framework is on the next slide.

* RELEVANCE* EXPERTISE* VIEWPOINT* INTENDED AUDIENCE* EVIDENCE* WHEN PUBLISHED

R.E.V.I.E.W Framework

WHEN PUBLISHED

EVIDENCE

INTENDED AUDIENCE

VIEWPOINT

EXPERTISE

RELEVANCE

When was the information published? Are you looking for current data, or for historical data?

What evidence has the author used for their argument? Can you trust this evidence?

Who has the information been written for? Industry professionals? Students? General public?

Is the author trying to sell an idea or opinion? Or turn you against an idea or opinion?

Who is the author? Are they an expert and qualified to write about the topic?

Is the data relevant to your topic? For example, if looking for information about UK business, would information on US companies be relevant?

Consider the Need

Understand the pros/cons of AI

Use Critical Thinking

THINGS TO REMEMBER

In line with using AI ethically, be aware of the pros and cons of AI.A pro is that it brings other works to your attention that you might not be familiar with.A con is that the wrtiting produced by the AI tool is incorrect and/or out-of-date.

Remember not to plagarise, accept falsified or fabricated information (be critical), or ask the generative AI tool to produce the whole assessment. Also be aware of all the ethical considerations.

Be Ethical and Honest

AI tools are not always accurate. You must check any information provided by AI tools by consulting reliable sources from books, journals, or high-quality websites. AI regularly provides false references - these must be checked before using in your work.

Do I really need to use AI? If so, how should I use it and what considerations should I take.
