    Marchese, Megan; Marchese, Andrew (College & Research Libraries, 2026-05)
    In 2024, 250 undergraduate students from a variety of majors completed an anonymous survey about their experiences using generative AI (genAI). Survey findings provide details on how students are using genAI for college coursework, students’ views of acceptable genAI uses for assignments, and their opinions on genAI and plagiarism. Results highlight a wide range of student perspectives, underscoring the need for greater foundational knowledge of genAI among students. Data from this survey also reveals connections between AI literacy and information literacy through the concepts of evaluating information and using information ethically.
