  Riktlinjer för inlämning av kalkyluppgifter:
  
  Rapportering av AI-användning: Om AI används vid skapandet av kalkyluppgifter, måste detta tydligt anges i uppgiften. Detta kan göras genom att lägga till tydliga kommentar i kalkylbladet och en steg-för-steg - beskrivning om hur man löst uppgiften i Excel.
  
  Syfte: Detta säkerställer transparens och att det tydligt framgår vilka delar av lösningen som är studentens egna och vilka som har genererats med AI eller där man haft stöd av AI.
