AI for Learning

Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems are powerful tools that are growing more common even as we continue learning more about their abilities and limitations. We encourage students to keep this key question in mind when deciding how to use AI: 

“Am I using AI in a way that helps me learn and develop mastery?”

Read the George Fox University AI statement and follow these guidelines from the statement:

• Exercise responsibility for the content you create and stay engaged in the learning process (with or without AI).
• Check for instructor permission about AI use (related to learning outcomes of class activities/assignments).
• Where permission exists, make sure to disclose any use of AI for class activities or assignments (by formal citation, less formal attribution, and/or a framing statement as appropriate).
• If an instructor has not explicitly invited use of AI, ask permission before utilizing AI for ANY assignments.

NOTE: AI systems can provide incomplete or false information ("hallucinations"). Double-check any AI output and be sure the responses make sense and you understand any steps that are presented. You are ultimately responsible for your learning and the accuracy of information.

All undergraduate students have free access to Numerade. Create your free account by going to numerade.com, clicking “Sign up now,” and using your George Fox email address to create your account.  

Numerade is a virtual learning platform specializing in STEM education. The system offers video lessons for selected textbook questions, custom video answers from educators, several study tools, and Ace, an AI tutor built on ChatGPT Plus. Although the textbooks are primarily for STEM subjects, Ace can be used for any subject.

We encourage you to make use of Ace since it promotes engagement for learning instead of just giving answers. See the Numerade User Guide for more information, including user support options.
