12/4, 12:00pm–SUNY CPD Presents: AI & Academic Integrity
Generative AI has posed huge challenges to academic integrity as students have started to submit work that is partially or fully generated by AI. These challenges are especially difficult to navigate in the online environment. This presentation will explore the relationship between generative AI and academic integrity from an information literacy perspective. It will include practical suggestions for application in online teaching.
Even if you cannot attend at the scheduled time, register for the sessions that meet your needs so you can get access to the recording afterwards.
