Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has significantly influenced the current educational system, offering various benefits to teachers and students. However, the integration of AI in education also poses challenges, particularly in maintaining academic integrity. This study investigates the perspectives of 24 science and mathematics students on the impact of Generative AI (GAI) on academic integrity, a core principle in higher education. Using an exploratory design, the findings reveal a dual perspective: GAI can enhance learning and research by providing advanced tools and resources, yet it also risks undermining ethical standards if misused. The study highlights the importance of balancing technological advancements with the maintenance of academic integrity, emphasizing the need for responsible AI usage and the development of policies to mitigate potential negative impacts. Further research is needed to explore the impact of GAI on academic integrity across different disciplines and educational contexts.
