Generative AI literacy

This guide will help in taking a critical approach to generative AI.

Generative AI literacy


The aim of this guide is to help you to understand generative AI (GenAI) tools and how to use them in a way that assists, rather than replaces, your own voice, ideas, and learning. 

GenAI tools can be really useful, but to use them ethically and effectively you need to be aware of their limits. 

You should follow your departmental guidance and check your module requirements on the use of GenAI.

Creating something using GenAI tools and then presenting it as your own work contravenes academic integrity and is considered unfair means. It is important that your work is based on your own skills, learning, research, and knowledge. 

Information about using generative AI tools will continue to be updated.
