Understanding Academic Integrity

Artificial Intelligence Response

In this scenario, you used generative AI to write summaries for your literature review and included these summaries into the assignment as if they were written by you. You didn’t acknowledge the use of ChatGPT to produce these summaries. This is a breach of academic integrity at Sheridan. 

Consequences

By offloading your work to generative AI, you are not meeting the learning outcomes of the assignment and are not learning a valuable skill of summarizing and synthesizing information which your professor wants you to practice. You are not engaging with scholarly research which you were supposed to read, analyze, summarize, and discuss in relation to your research topic. You have not practiced any of those valuable skills, and you don’t deserve the grade you receive for completing this work on your own.
