Abstract
En 中文
With the prevalence of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI), educating students about the expected social behavior is essential. However, current approaches are labor intensive, overly general, and/or have limited educational impact. The author presents an online platform that automatically informs students about GenAI misuse. For each code program, the platform will report whether it differs more than other already-submitted programs (10% or less similarity). GenAI-generated programs tend to differ, and students are discouraged from using them directly. The report also features instructors' expectations. To further promote the impact, the author provided short weekly quizzes. The author's five quasi-experiments involving 468 students demonstrated that students using the platform were slightly more aware of GenAI misuse and plagiarism, with the largest increase of 13% for overall awareness and 37% for specific aspects. The students were also less likely to be involved in such misconduct. Students saw the relevance of code differences, the platform, and the implementation strategy.
