AI discussion questions at the start of the semester

Suggested questions for teachers and professors to bring up with their classes at the start of the school year:

  • What AI policies have you had in other classes?

  • Are you using it and how? (talk about how you are using it)

  • How could AI be ethically used in education? 

  • What counts as AI-enabled plagiarism?

  • How could AI be ethically used in the production of media?  

  • When should students rely on AI assistance? 

  • When should students not rely on AI assistance? 

Talk about transparency (perhaps show some examples of transparency statements)

Be sure to tell them about your expectations regarding the use of generative AI and when it can be used in the class.
