Before using any AI tools check with your module tutor that the one you would like to use, and the purpose you intend to use it for, is permitted for your assignment.
Any use of AI must be explicitly acknowledged and any content created using an AI tool must be clearly identified and referenced using guidance from the APA 7th referencing guide.
You should provide a description of the prompts or questions you used with any AI tool, details of the output generated, and (where applicable) information demonstrating how you modified the content for inclusion in your assessment.
You may be required include the content created either in your work or as an appendix and should check with your module tutor for clarification.
Example:
When prompted to 'Provide examples of children's literature' ChatGPT (OpenAI, 2013) generated text that offered several titles including The Crossover and Last stop on Market Street. The full list can be seen in Appendix A.
You should provide a citation and a reference for any AI tools you have used using the guidance in the APA referencing guide.
Some AI tools will produce what look like genuine references to credible sources but they are likely to be made up or out-of-date. It is also worth noting that the AI tools you use may not have access to subscription based content that is available from Library Search or other subject databases that you have access to as an LTU student.
If an AI tool you are using does suggest a reference you should try and find it using Library Search or Google Scholar and check it for relevancy and accuracy before using it in your work.
