[Canadaoer] Re: AI Use in the Production of OER

Hi Heather, About a year ago we developed these guidelines at BCcampus. Our context was to try to provide some considerations for authors who had received OER creation grants from BCcampus as we were starting to get questions from them about using GenAI for content creation https://opentextbc.ca/gettingstarted/chapter/generative-artificial-intellig… Reading these a year later and I can see where this information has now become common knowledge. There is room for revision and refinement as the conversations about GenAI have become more nuanced. But they might be a good starting point for you. And there are some references at the end of the document that might also be useful for your continued research.
