This guide is a five-step framework designed to assist higher education institutions in reflecting on their approach to artificial intelligence (AI) in teaching and learning. The first step focuses on the institution's philosophy regarding AI use, prompting discussions about whether AI is viewed as a partner, a productivity tool, or both. The second step addresses faculty support in AI adoption, assessing whether faculty members are equipped to use AI effectively in their teaching practices. The third step evaluates the clarity and actionability of AI policies, ensuring that academic honesty and classroom policies adequately address AI use. The fourth step examines the design of assignments to promote critical thinking and originality among students, while the final step outlines actionable next steps for institutions to take in integrating AI into their educational frameworks. Each step includes reflective prompts to guide institutional discussions and planning.
