Academic honesty/integrity statement:

Students are expected to maintain the highest standards of academic integrity. All work submitted must be original and properly cited. Plagiarism, cheating, or any form of academic dishonesty will result in immediate consequences as outlined in the university's academic integrity policy.

Any material in a paper not composed by the author, or borrowed without attribution, will be considered plagiarized. Plagiarism is a serious offence and will be dealt with according to the Academic Honor Code. (http://policylibrary.gatech.edu/student-affairs/academic-honor-code). When in doubt, use quotation marks and cite sources. Sanctions for plagiarism can range from a failing grade in the course to expulsion.

This course is meant in part to improve and evaluate your writing ability. For this reason, for the purposes of this class, any student found to have used AI technologies or programs (e.g. Chat GPT) to compose part or all of any submitted work will face the same penalties as a student who submits plagiarized work (i.e. a failing grade in the course). To repeat: AI-generated work will be treated as equivalent to plagiarized work.

Core IMPACTS statement(s) (if applicable):

This is a Core IMPACTS course that is part of the Humanities area. 

Core IMPACTS refers to the core curriculum, which provides students with essential knowledge in foundational academic areas. This course will help master course content, and support students’ broad academic and career goals. 

This course should direct students toward a broad Orienting Question:
• How do I interpret the human experience through creative, linguistic, and philosophical works? 

Completion of this course should enable students to meet the following Learning Outcome: • Students will effectively analyze and interpret the meaning, cultural significance, and ethical 

implications of literary/philosophical texts or of works in the visual/performing arts. 

Course content, activities and exercises in this course should help students develop the following Career-Ready Competencies: Ethical Reasoning; Information Literacy; Intercultural Competence

Academic honesty/integrity statement:

The Academic Honor Code is a student initiative that became an official Institute policy in 1996. If you're unsure about what is allowed, what constitutes plagiarism, etc., ask! You can find the Honor Code (with a listing of responsibilities in Sections II.3 and II.4) at http://www.policylibrary.gatech.edu/student-affairs/academic-honor-code.  CRUCIAL: if you're unsure about what is allowed, what constitutes plagiarism, etc., ask!

Core IMPACTS statement(s) (if applicable):

The Learning Outcomes satisfy the designated learning objectives for the Core IMPACTS Social Sciences area: “how political relationships develop, persist, and change,” and an understanding of “the complexity of human behavior as a function of the commonality and diversity within groups.”

Academic honesty/integrity statement:

Students are expected to maintain the highest standards of academic integrity. All work submitted must be original and properly cited. Plagiarism, cheating, or any form of academic dishonesty will result in immediate consequences as outlined in the university's academic integrity policy.

For class discussions and research projects you will be asked to collaborate with other classmates. You are also encouraged to form online study groups in order to help yourself and others understand the course materials. However, any other assignment that forms the basis of your final grade must be your own original work. This includes all exams and homework.

GT aims to cultivate a community based on trust, academic integrity, and honor. Students are expected to act according to the highest ethical standards and follow Georgia Tech's Honor Code.

Any student suspected of cheating or plagiarizing will be reported to the Office of Student Integrity, who will investigate the incident and identify the appropriate penalty for violations. 

Use of Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) Tools

You may use generative AI programs (e.g. ChatGPT) to help generate ideas and brainstorm. You should be aware that the material generated by these programs may be inaccurate, incomplete, biased or otherwise problematic. Additionally, use of these tools may stifle your own independent thinking and creativity in Spanish.

Generative AI derives its output from previously created texts from other sources that the models were trained on yet doesn't cite sources. Per Georgia Tech's Honor Code, you may not submit any work generated by an AI program as your own. If you include material generated by an AI program, it should be cited like any other reference material (with due consideration for the quality of the reference, which may be poor). When/if you use AI platforms in your assignments, please write a note to clarify where in your process you used AI, include the prompt used to generate the material, and which platform(s) you used. AI tools during an exam are never permitted.
