Academic honesty,
plagiarism and AI tools
|
Attention is drawn to
University policy and regulations on honesty in academic
work, and to the disciplinary guidelines and procedures
applicable to breaches of such policy and regulations.
Details may be found at http://www.cuhk.edu.hk/policy/academichonesty/. With each assignment,
students will be required to submit a signed declaration that they are aware of
these policies, regulations, guidelines and procedures.
For group projects, all students of the same group
should be asked to sign the declaration. For
assignments in the form of a computer-generated document
that is principally text-based and submitted via
VeriGuide, the statement, in the form of a receipt, will be issued by the system upon students’ uploading of the soft copy of the
assignment. Assignments without the receipt will not be
graded by teachers. Only the final version of the
assignment should be submitted via VeriGuide. As a general
principle, students are prohibited from using any AI
tools to complete their assignments, assessments and any
other works that count towards their final grade of the
course or attainment of the desired learning outcomes,
unless explicitly permitted. “Use of Artificial
Intelligence Tools in Teaching, Learning and
Assessments – A Guide for Students” is available
at the website of Academic and Quality Section Registry,
