Open the live policy lab
Wait for the instructor before creating the individual baseline. The first nine minutes must be your own work without generative AI.

Policy Lab DayWho did the learning?
Start with your own judgment, stress-test a university AI policy with new facts and classmates, use a bounded critic, then carry verified evidence into the existing Topic 3 policy memo.

Start here
Enter through the CS-215 course mode.
This route removes the standalone report requirement, keeps your work in a separate browser-storage space, and returns you to this page when the lab is complete.
Class flow
One clock, nine visible stages.
The full 80-minute schedule includes launch, individual and group reasoning, a bounded critic, defense, and a final save-and-return close.
Open course mode, confirm local saving, sit with your table (it is your group), and read the privacy rule.
Recover the four review lenses and inspect the fictional polished-report case.
Answer Q1–Q5 without AI, allocate accountability, and lock the snapshot.
Assign roles, share initial disagreements, and write one provisional policy.
Stress-test access, privacy, and accountability. Rotate the drafter and challenger as directed.
Use an instructor-approved AI critic only if available; otherwise use the built-in critique card. Evaluate rather than copy.
Close AI, send one counterexample to the next table number (the highest number sends to Table 1), then revise or defend the four-clause policy. Every member types the final four clauses into their own Final group policy fields.
Answer “What changed from your baseline, and why?” and “What remains uncertain?”, then note which review ideas support the policy.
Export memo evidence, upload it to the LMS lab assignment, and download a backup. Verify the files, then return to the policy memo.
Group roles
Four jobs keep the discussion moving.
Groups of three combine evidence keeper and spokesperson. Rotate the drafter after access and the challenger after privacy.
Writes the group's one- or two-sentence output.
States the strongest reasonable objection.
Records reasons and revisions, then exports the group packet.
Defends the policy after the AI window closes.
No Claude account or network?
Open the built-in critique card in the AI critic stage. It targets the same learning goal and does not reduce credit or block completion.
Finish well
Leave with your evidence uploaded.
Your files are working notes. Inspect them before leaving the browser and carry only accurate, necessary reasoning into the memo. Your upload counts when it shows a locked baseline (Part A), your table’s final policy (Part D) and your reflection (Part E: “What changed from your baseline, and why?” and “What remains uncertain?”). Parts B and C may read “Not completed” unless you imported your table’s packet; that is fine. On an iPhone the exported file is in Files › Downloads; on Android, in Downloads. If the export fails, copy the Memo notes preview and paste it into the assignment’s text box instead.
Preserves the full local session so it can be restored in CS-215 mode.
Creates an editable text record without student identity fields. Upload this file to the LMS lab assignment.
Follow the memo's authorship boundary; the critic must not write submitted prose.
Private chat history, credentials, or real student data.
Return to the graded memo.
Use the lab to improve your reasoning, then verify sources and write within the existing Topic 3 instructions.
After the memo: Topic 4.
Move from policy reasoning to reviewable AI-assisted writing.
