We try to hold close to TCC’s academic integrity policies and the value of education. 

We believe in education, we believe in the deep, messy, rich learning process, in the importance of critical thinking, structure and vocabulary building, and the beauty of each person’s unique voice.  

As we try to respond to students’ use of AI/LLM in their coursework, the WTC 

• WON'T “police” students; 

• WILL promote students’ best use of the tools available to learn; 

• WILL work to help you unpack the “why”; 

• WILL emphasize the power and value of student (human) voice;  

• WILL use good judgement in interpreting instructors’ rules and expectations.
