AI Resources
Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology, such as ChatGPT, is readily available to the public and is already integrated into many tools our students use for their coursework. The development of AI technologies is challenging us to rethink our teaching philosophies and assessment methods while considering the ethical and personal implications for our teaching practices and students' learning outcomes. The decision on whether to allow the use of AI in a University of Lethbridge course is at the discretion of each individual instructor. However, we strongly recommend you include an AI statement in your course syllabus to inform students if and how they can use AI in your course(s).
