The University of Missouri Faculty Council voted to approve an artificial intelligence use scale policy.

According to council documents, MU educators are responsible for labeling graded assignments and assessments on a level from zero to three.

Assignments where an instructor allows no AI use are considered a “Level Zero,” but “Level Three” assignments would be assignments where instructors are fine with students using AI to help on larger tasks.

The policy is intended to clearly communicate expectations for the appropriate use of AI in coursework. MU educators to retain the authority to determine whether AI use is permitted, restricted or encouraged in their courses and assignments.

AI use levels will ultimately remain up to each instructor, according to documents used in previous reporting.
