Build Your AI Policy

Configure student-facing expectations for each AI-use activity, then generate a shareable link for your students. Items set to N/A won't appear in the student view.

Quick Stance

Are you considering excluding AI entirely from this assessment?

📖How the AI Disclosure Gate Works

Configure student-facing expectations for an assignment using the activity inventory below, then generate a student link. Students will review the policy, complete a short scenario-based quiz, disclose their AI use, and generate a PDF.

1. Configure Your AI Policy

For each AI-use activity, indicate whether it is Use Freely, Permitted, Discouraged, or Not applicable. Items set to Not applicable will not appear to students.

2. Generate a Student Link

Once configured, generate a unique link to share via your LMS or assignment instructions.

3. Student Completion

Students review the policy, answer 3 scenario-based questions, disclose which AI tools they used, and download a PDF disclosure.

Consider co-creating this policy with your students

We encourage instructors to co-create or at least openly discuss AI expectations with students. When students understand the rationale behind a policy and have some voice in shaping it, they are more likely to act transparently and less likely to see disclosure as purely punitive.

How this works with AIAS 2.1

The AI Assessment Scale informs how an assessment is designed and what it assesses. This inventory serves a different purpose: it turns that design into clear, student-facing expectations for specific AI activities. It does not assign an AIAS level.

Privacy: Instructor settings are stored to generate your assignment link. No personal information is collected from students.

📋Disclosure Requirement Defaults

Each permission level has a default disclosure setting. Use Freely items default to no disclosure; Permitted and Discouraged items default to disclosure required. You can override any individual item using the toggle on each row.

Set your policy, activity by activity

You are setting the policy here, but the section headings and activity descriptions below are written the way your students will read them — addressed to them, in their words. That is deliberate: what you see is what appears in the student policy, so you can judge the wording as they will encounter it.

Getting Started and Researching

Ways AI might help you explore a topic, understand material, plan your work, or begin research.

Topic Exploration / Idea Development

Using AI to suggest, compare, or develop possible topics, questions, or approaches.

Concept Explanation / Learning Support

Asking AI to explain concepts, examples, or terminology, then checking the explanation against course materials.

Outlining / Task Planning

Using AI to propose a structure, sequence, or work plan that you review and develop.

Initial Research / Source Discovery

Using AI to identify search terms, research directions, or possible sources that you independently locate and verify.

Reviewing and Checking Your Work

Ways AI might help you review clarity, references, claims, or your understanding of sources.

Proofreading / Surface Editing

Using AI to identify grammar, spelling, punctuation, or clarity issues without replacing substantive ideas or arguments.

Reference / Citation Formatting

Using AI to format verified source details, with the citation style and source accuracy checked independently.

Claim Checking / Source Verification

Using AI to identify claims requiring verification, then checking them against reliable sources yourself.

Source Summarization / Synthesis

Using AI to summarize or compare sources you have read, checking accuracy, context, and nuance against the originals.

Revising, Translating, and Troubleshooting

Ways AI might help you rework existing material, translate language, or troubleshoot code.

Rewriting / Paraphrasing

Using AI to re-express existing text while evaluating and substantially revising the output and retaining required attribution.

Translation / Language Support

Using AI to translate text while checking meaning, tone, context, and discipline-specific terminology.

Code Explanation / Debugging

Using AI to explain or diagnose existing code while testing suggestions and being able to justify the final solution.

Generating Content and Analyzing Information

Ways AI might generate substantive text, media, code, analysis, or other content for your work.

Text / Draft Generation

Using AI to generate sentences, sections, or drafts that you critically evaluate, modify, integrate, and can defend.

Media / Presentation Generation

Using AI to generate or substantially alter images, audio, video, or slides while reviewing accuracy, rights, attribution, and design decisions.

Code / Data Analysis / Visualization Generation

Using AI to generate code, analyses, charts, or data outputs while validating the method, inputs, results, and limitations.

Rewriting AI-generated text is listed separately. Ordinary revision for clarity belongs under editing or paraphrasing. Use this activity when your policy also needs to address revision of AI-generated drafts or tools intended to conceal AI involvement.

Rewriting AI-Generated Text

Using AI to revise AI-generated text for clarity or style, including tools intended to conceal AI involvement.

Student-Facing Preview

What students will see when they open your link

Your instructor has set expectations for how you may use AI on this assignment. Review each activity before you begin. You remain responsible for the accuracy, relevance, and integrity of your work.

Discouraged (1)

Complete this activity without AI. It is part of what this assignment is designed to assess. If you use AI here anyway, you must disclose it.

  • Rewriting AI-Generated TextDisclosure required

    Using AI to revise AI-generated text for clarity or style, including tools intended to conceal AI involvement.

    Why: Revising AI-generated text for clarity can be legitimate when permitted and disclosed. Using a tool to obscure AI involvement is academic dishonesty — its purpose is concealment, not improvement. This activity is discouraged so your process remains visible.

    Instead: For ordinary clarity or style changes, follow the editing or paraphrasing policy. If AI-generated drafting is permitted, revise it openly and disclose what the AI contributed.
