Generative AI tools may not be used for any part of this assessment. [The task is completed in class / under supervised conditions.] Ordinary academic-integrity expectations apply.

You may use generative AI to brainstorm ideas, explore possible structures and organise your planning. The analysis and all of the writing must be your own work — AI may not draft any part of what you submit. With your submission, include [a short planning note / a source map] showing your key decisions. [You may be asked to discuss these briefly.] Add a short AI-use statement to your submission.

Tool(s) used: [name of tool] What I used it for: [e.g. brainstorming topics, suggesting possible structures] I confirm that the analysis and all written text in this submission are my own.

You may use generative AI to improve the language, clarity and style of a draft you have written yourself. AI may not generate ideas, arguments, analysis, or any of the disciplinary decisions in your work. Keep a copy of your draft from before AI editing. [You may be asked to explain your key revisions briefly in class. If you cannot take part, an equivalent alternative is available — speak to me.] Check every fact and source yourself, and complete the AI-use record.

Tool(s) used: [name of tool] Main AI edits I accepted: [brief summary] Main AI edits I rejected, and why: [brief summary] I have checked all facts and sources myself. The ideas, analysis and disciplinary decisions in this work are my own.

You may use generative AI to generate content, draft materials, or propose solutions for parts of this assessment. You are expected to critically evaluate, verify, revise, and selectively integrate AI-generated outputs, applying your own disciplinary knowledge and judgment. You remain responsible for the accuracy, quality, ethical appropriateness, and academic integrity of the final submission. You will demonstrate your understanding through [a brief oral explanation of key decisions / a short related task completed without generative AI]. If you are unable to participate in a live assessment, an equivalent alternative will be provided. Do not enter personal, confidential or proprietary information into any AI tool. Complete the AI-use declaration.

Tool(s) used: [name of tool] How I used AI: [what I asked it to produce] How I checked its output for accuracy and ethical appropriateness: [brief summary] Key decisions I made: [what I kept, changed or rejected, and why] I accept full responsibility for the final work.

Generative AI may produce most of the assessment content. Students are responsible for directing its use, critically evaluating and verifying its outputs, and demonstrating their ability to explain, adapt, and defend the final work. You will demonstrate your understanding and disciplinary competence through [a live walkthrough in which you explain, adapt, and justify your work / an equivalent non-live demonstration and adaptation task completed without AI]. Do not enter personal, confidential or proprietary information into any AI tool. Keep a record of your AI use.

Tool(s) used: [name of tool] What I asked the AI to do: [main prompts or instructions] How I directed and revised the output: [brief summary] How I checked the content: [brief summary] I have checked all of this work and can explain and defend every part of it.
