# AI Acceptable Use Policy: My Module ## 1. Core Principles We are committed to preparing you for a digital healthcare environment. You are encouraged to use Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools ethically to support your learning, subject to the following rules. ## 2. Permitted Uses You **MAY** use AI tools for: * **Planning**: Brainstorming ideas, outlining essays, and structuring arguments. * **Refinement**: Checking grammar, simplifying complex text, and translation. * **Visuals**: Creating diagrams or images (must be declared). * **Explanation**: Asking for simple explanations of complex clinical concepts. ## 3. Prohibited Uses You **MUST NOT** use AI tools for: * **Writing**: Generating entire essays or assessment submissions. The final work must be your own. * **Patient Data**: Never input confidential patient information (names, NHS numbers) into AI. This is a severe professional misconduct issue. * **Fabrication**: Never use AI to generate references or sources. You must verify every citation. ## 4. Declaration You must declare your use of AI. Include a statement at the end of your work detailing which tools you used and for what purpose. ## 5. Compliance We focus on process-based assessment. We may ask you to discuss your work in a Viva Voce to confirm your understanding.

Why use this?​

1. Clarity

Remove Ambiguity

AI is built into everyday tools (Grammarly, Microsoft 365 Copilot, search engines). Explicitly state what is permitted and how to declare it.

2. Standardisation

Reduce Student Anxiety

Consistent messaging across module handbooks prevents accidental academic misconduct and supports equitable access.

3. Protection

Safeguard Patients & Registration

Clear data red lines protect patients on placement and protect students’ future NMC registration.
