Develop Classroom Policies

Objective: This worksheet aims to guide students through a reflective and collaborative process to establish clear guidelines for the ethical and effective use of AI in their academic work. It moves from the general importance of rules in society to the specific application of integrity and responsibility when using emerging technologies.


Content and methods: The worksheet begins with a conceptual introduction to the necessity of rules using analogies from sports and traffic to illustrate fairness and safety. It then transitions into a critical discussion on AI, prompting students to analyze how these tools impact critical thinking, learning, and accuracy through open-ended questions. Finally, the worksheet provides concrete suggestions for classroom policies and concludes with a collaborative signing of a "class contract" to ensure mutual commitment.

Rules for Using AI Tools for Homework

  1. Understand How AI Works

    • Before using any AI tool, take some time to understand how it operates and what sources it uses. This will help you use it more effectively and responsibly.

  2. Verify Information

    • Always double-check the information provided by AI with reliable sources like textbooks, academic journals, or trusted websites to ensure its accuracy.

  3. Use AI as a Supplement

    • Use AI tools to complement your learning, not as a replacement. Make sure to read your textbooks, attend classes, and participate in discussions.

  4. Practice Critical Thinking

    • Don't just accept AI-generated answers at face value. Think critically about the information and how it applies to your homework and studies.

  5. Cite AI Sources

    • If you use information from an AI tool in your homework, be sure to cite it properly, just like you would with any other source.

  6. Ethical Use

    • Don’t use AI to cheat or plagiarize. Make sure your work is your own and that you are using AI to help you learn and not to bypass your own efforts.

  7. Limit Dependence

    • Try to solve problems and answer questions on your own before turning to AI. Use AI as a last resort to ensure you are still learning the material.

  8. Ask for Help

    • If you find yourself relying too much on AI, talk to your teacher or a tutor. They can provide additional help and resources to improve your understanding of the subject.

By following these rules, you can make the most of AI tools while still ensuring you learn and understand your homework material.
