I agree that digital ethics should be more specific with AI use.   I think it is important to establish clear guidelines that address issues, like bias, accountability, transparency, etc., and keep them relevant and updated for evolving digital world.

Our university are establishing some specific genAI guidelines use in doing the assignment.  Can someone share some specific guidelines use examples in your institution?

Hi!  Our students are requested to declare what and how to use genAI tools to assist in doing assignments.

I use the Chatgpt developed by our university.  Because I am very concerned about the data privacy issues when using public AI tools.

AI can be a helpful learning tool, it’s important to make sure your students are using it responsibly.  You can ask them to explain their answers in their own words, look at their drafts.    

Do your school have any AI guidelines and regulations?

Yes, my school has developed some guidelines for teachers and students on the ethical and proper use of generative AI tools in teaching and learning, and also doing assignment tasks.

Hi Sue,

There are multiple ways to use to assist students.
Some of them includes:


i. Chatbots : Just imagine, it's late mid-night ..Nobody's online.Wouldn't it be nice to have someone answer your quieries ASAP?
So, we can have AI make such chatbots which can offer great assistance to students.
 

ii. Making the study-content more interactive: Let's be honest, we all know understanding plain text takes tons of time and focus. In this modern-day age where the focus span is almost as nil.. i would say most students struggle with their attention span when holding a book.
Now today, with the help of AI.. we can create Artificial simulations of the concept in the books which might help us understand better and retain the concept more for a longer period of time.

iii. We all know , some students are blessed with the ability to retain information faster while somebody does slower compared to others. Hence, here we can use AI platforms where students can study and learn as per their pace and wish thus providing custom study plans.

So, these were some of the few that were at the top of my mind . Lets keep on discussing more .. so that the ideas keep on flowing.
I'll be more than happy to read discussion on such topics. 
Thanks.

Digital carbon footprint is a hot topic nowadays.  I think we can delete old emails and files from cloud storage; use wi-fi to consume less energy; turn-off device which is not in use.  Hm, any more methods?

I usually set limits on screen time; use dark mode; use refurbished electronics to reduce e-wastes. 

Some examples of good digital citizenship are respecting others online, using appropriate language, protecting privacy, giving credit for content, and avoiding cyberbullying.

I think it’s about understanding digital ethics, online safety, critical thinking.  Students should learn to identify trustworthy sources, protect their privacy………
