Detailed rules for the use of artificial intelligence (AI) tools during the course: according to the current regulations, this course is level 3 (AI assisted editing), which means AI can be used to make improvements to the clarity or quality of student created work to improve the final output, but no new content can be created using AI. AI can be used, but your original work with no Al content must be provided in an appendix.

The above refers to the original AI Assessment Scale (AIAS) AI Collaboration level 5 description: AI may be used to help complete the task, including idea generation, drafting, feedback, and refinement. Students should critically evaluate and modify the AI suggested outputs, demonstrating their understanding.
You may use AI to assist with specific tasks such as drafting text, refining and evaluating your work. You must critically evaluate and modify any AI-generated content you use.

Important note: any kind of academic dishonesty (especially intellectual property infringement) will be immediately reported to the disciplinary bodies of the University of Warsaw and will result in a final course grade of 2.

Active participation
For the purpose of the general outcome of the course, student's active participation is required. Participants of the course are expected to attend the classes prepared and ready for active discussions with thoughtful remarks and productive comments.
