GAiIT Level 3: When Students Cross the Line
It will happen...
Not many, but a few students will always test the limits reasons of their own.
Much of the same criteria that motivated students to use excessive Ai in G5 are very similar to G4 according to the GAiIT development team. People would disregard assignment expectations for various reasons. The more commonly noted reasons why people would use Ai included:
A lack of clarity for the expectations of the use of Ai
A lack of time management leads to use of Ai doing the work
A lack of subject investment leads to Ai doing the work
A lack of subject knowledge leads to Ai doing the work
A lack of belief that the instructor will read their work
A lack of technology training that would prohibit the student from completing the work
What to look for at GAiIT Level 3
At this point the Ai, has been invited into the work flow of the assessment. However, that work flow is relegated to the back end of the assignment. Planning, outlining, ideation, brainstorming, researching, and other pre-work tasks can be taken on by Ai. Additionally, that work NEEDS TO BE CITED! That means, should the student use more that 50% of the Ai's ideas for their project outline, it should be sourced and noted. Depending on the assignment or the subject area conducting the assessment, those citations will look different. Ai's footprint could simply be an (*) next to an object, description, or section of text where at the bottom of the screen the (*) notes that over 50% of this content was built by Ai.
When looking for Ai in writing assessments:
- Mechanical and impersonal opening statements
- Short brief paragraphs without using targeted cited sources
- Does not cite sources in APA format
- Listing of content in paragraph form
- Speaking in third person when the object of the lesson is to have a first person reflection
- Overly mechanical and formal writing free of linguistic euphemisms used by native speaker'
- The use of the phrase, "In conclusion,"
When looking for Ai in project-based assessments:
- Watermarks from Ai generation tools (often times put in the lower left or lower right-hand corners)
- Project presents overly generic images in conjunction with oddly generic bullet points or written sections
- Images have more than two arms (This is improving quickly)
- The corona and iris of Ai generated people is not perfectly circular (This is improving quickly)
- Hands have 6 or more fingers on them (this is improving quickly)
- The PPT or slide deck has a "logo" in the bottom right or left corner - evidence of an Ai generated presentation.
