Abstract
The rapid emergence of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) in higher education has sparked widespread concern, particularly regarding academic integrity (Gruenhagen et al., 2024). Recognising that punitive measures alone fail to address the root causes of misuse (Cullen, 2022), the Student Success team at the University of the Sunshine Coast (UniSC) implemented an educative approach to GenAI literacy. This emerging initiative comprises a detailed GenAI usage scale, a suite of accessible academic skills resources, interactive workshops, and an asynchronous online course. By equipping students with the knowledge to navigate GenAI responsibly, this approach not only reduces misconduct but also enhances academic autonomy and success.
