One serious kind of academic misconduct is plagiarism, which occurs when a writer, speaker, or designer deliberately uses someone else’s language, ideas, images, or other original material or code without fully acknowledging its source by quotation marks as appropriate, in footnotes or endnotes, in works cited, and in other ways as appropriate (modified from WPA Statement on “Defining and Avoiding Plagiarism”). If you engage in plagiarism or any other form of academic misconduct, you will fail the assignment in which you have engaged in academic misconduct and be referred to the Office of Student Integrity, as required by Georgia Tech policy. We strongly urge you to be familiar with these Georgia Tech sites: · Honor Challenge —https://osi.gatech.edu/students/honor-code · Office of Student Integrity — http://www.osi.gatech.edu/index.php/

Academic Honesty and Integrity

Academic Honesty

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 “Writing with Humor”: This course is all about teaching you about the ethics of quotation, citation, and the generous use of other people’s words and ideas. We’ll talk about what makes work “original,” best practices for writing with sources and colleagues, and how to do citation. When in doubt, let me know and we’ll work it out together! 

I am most interested in your ideas, your way of writing, and your words. In college, we value your unique contribution and quality critical thinking over some nonexistent “right answer” or perfect grammar. Accordingly, please pay attention to the below policy on generative AI. We’ll discuss this policy and make adjustments as they come up. The most important thing is for you not to sabotage your (expensive) education by letting AI do tasks that are meant to make you learn and grow. 

Academic Honesty and Generative AI

This course is about growing in your ability to write, communicate, and think critically. Generative AI agents such as ChatGPT, DALL-E 2, and others present great opportunities for learning and for communicating. However, AI cannot learn or communicate for you, and so cannot meet the course requirements for you. 

In this course, using generative AI tools in the work of the course (including assignments, discussions, ungraded work, etc.) is allowed only in instances specified by your instructor.

In “ENGL 1101: Writing with Humor,” using software and AI tools for things like spell-checking is always okay. However, using the generative or conversational functions of gen AI is allowed only when specified by the instructor—we’ll have a clear policy for each assignment or type of work. When AI use is permitted, I’ll ask you to acknowledge how you used the AI in a transparency statement. We’ll talk about how to engage with gen AI ethically and in a way that supports your learning, and I’ll walk you through expectations for transparency and documentation.

As with any technology, generative AI tools need to be used critically and according to academic and professional expectations. Thus, in instances in which your instructor allows generative AI tool use, you are expected to adhere to these principles:

• Responsibility: You are responsible for the work you submit. In instances in which your instructor allows generative AI tool use, this means that any work you submit should be your own, with any AI assistance appropriately disclosed (see “Transparency” below)  and any AI-generated content appropriately cited (see “Documentation” below). This also means you must ensure that any factual statements produced by a generative AI tool are true and that any references or citations produced by the AI tool are correct.
• Transparency: Any generative AI tools you use in the work of the course should be clearly acknowledged as indicated by the instructor. This work includes not only when you use content directly produced by a generative AI tool but also when you use a generative AI tool in the process of composition (for example, for brainstorming, outlining, or translation purposes).
• Documentation: You should cite any content generated by an AI tool as you would when quoting, paraphrasing, or summarizing ideas, text, images, or other content made by other people.

Using generative AI tools at times not allowed by the instructor will be considered an infraction of the Georgia Tech Honor Code subject to investigation by the Office of Student Integrity. Likewise, using generative AI tools in the course without adhering to these principles will be considered an infraction of the Georgia Tech Honor Code subject to investigation by the Office of Student Integrity.
