NOTE:
Highly Important: Dear Class, this is a reminder that the use
of AI is not permitted when formatting discussion posts or writing assignments.
We are periodically checking the use of AI in discussions and assignments, and
we do have a new policy that is outlined in the course syllabus on page
6.
You may use editing tools that help you with typos,
spelling errors, and grammatical/sentence structure errors, but may
not use any generative AI tools that generate
text, ideas, or conclusions, in response to prompts you give it. Doing so, is
considered plagiarism, which will result in a grade of zero for this
assignment.
Please make sure you read the AI policy and adhere to it.
