If you're wondering how to introduce VisibleAI in simple terms within your course outline, feel free to use the below text as a guideline or copy and paste it into your syllabus.
This semester, we will be using VisibleAI (www.kritik.io/visibleai), a learning platform focused on AI transparent and literacy that will build trust between you and your instructor based on the composition of your work. VisibleAI enables instructors and students to better understand and manage AI use in academic work, removing the uncertainty around AI-generated content. Kritik is focused on an important goal: to help you in developing critical thinking and communication skills in the age of AI, which in turn set you up for success both in and out of the classroom.
You will use VisibleAI during the Create Stage in Kritik:
Create — You will see the VisibleAI editor, which is where you will compose your work. Scroll up to locate the assignment instructions and read the provided rubric. Once you have familiarized yourself with the assignment details, begin typing into the VisibleAI editor. To learn more about the VisibleAI Insights, refer to this help article.
