In our foundation science unit Science in Practice, SCI100, we saw a surge in generative AI academic misconduct cases in 2023. In response, we decided to embrace generative AI tools in the written assessment tasks for the unit. This year, we restructured our written assessments to allow students to use generative AI tools to polish their written work. Further, in response to students sharing past essays, we have employed generative AI to develop an efficient system of creating a new fictional case study each trimester. The outcomes were a large reduction in academic misconduct cases and an observed low uptake and resistance to using AI tools among students. In this talk, we will share our experiences and findings with a seemingly constructive way forward in this challenging space.
