Nare’s professor has informed students that generative AI tools are not to be used for the graded activities and assignments in their class. However, Nare still has UPEI access to a premium generative AI tool that they used in another class last semester. Nare learned how to use it to do high-quality work on similar assignments. What should Nare do about the assignments in this course?

Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

An instructor’s explicit course rule about tool use must be followed: when a professor states generative AI is prohibited for graded work, that prohibition governs student behavior for that course.

1) Relevant knowledge points and concepts
- Academic integrity and course policies: instructors set requirements and restrictions for assignments; violating them can be academic misconduct.  
- Institutional access vs. permission: having access to a University-provided tool does not override a course-level prohibition.  
- Acceptable use and disclosure: when AI use is allowed, students must usually follow citation or disclosure rules; when disallowed, disclosure/citation does not make use permissible.

2) Step-by-step reasoning
- Step 1: The professor has clearly communicated that generative AI tools are not to be used for graded activities in this class. That is a course rule.  
- Step 2: Nare still has access to a premium tool from UPEI, and prior experience with it, but access alone does not grant permission to contravene course rules.  
- Step 3: Using the tool despite the prohibition would breach the instructor’s policy and could be treated as academic misconduct, risking penalties (zero on assignment, disciplinary action).  
- Step 4: The correct action is to comply with the instructor’s prohibition, or if Nare believes an exception is warranted, ask the instructor for explicit, written permission before using the tool.

3) Why the correct answer is correct
Answer b is correct because it directly follows the instructor’s stated prohibition; respecting course-specific rules preserves academic integrity and avoids sanctions.

4) Why the other options are incorrect
- a) Access by UPEI and familiarity with the tool do not supersede an instructor’s prohibition.  
- c) “Judicious use and citation” would be appropriate only if the course or program allows AI; citation does not make use permissible when explicitly banned.  
- d) Claiming future-readiness does not justify breaking current course rules; being upfront does not remove the prohibition—permission must still be granted by the instructor.

Conclusion: Nare should not use generative AI for this course since the instructor has prohibited it; this matches the provided correct answer (b).
