With Matthew Vetter
Track: AI Teaching Track
This presentation examines the realities of generative AI use among IUP undergraduate students. Drawing on survey data collected from over 300 students across majors at IUP, Vetter will discuss how students engage with AI tools for academic work, their perceptions of its impact on learning, and their comfort levels in disclosing AI usage to instructors. While a majority of students use AI, many choose not to disclose it due to concerns about academic penalties or perceived stigma. This session provides insights into student attitudes and practices, offering a data-driven perspective on AI’s role in learning at IUP, and concludes with suggestions for promoting transparency and dialogue about generative AI use for academic work.
