Generative AI (GenAI) is transforming knowledge production and use, raising urgent challenges for assessment integrity, curriculum design, and graduate capability. While policies and literacy frameworks set guiding principles, few demonstrate how to embed GenAI at scale in ethical and sustainable ways. This research-in-progress introduces a Scaffolded Progression Framework for GenAI Literacy, combining a pedagogical design with its operationalisation in the learning management system (LMS). Designed for large, first-year cohorts where foundational habits of academic integrity and digital practice are formed, the framework sequences guidance, application, and reflection through staged assessment tasks. The study adopts an exploratory, design-science-inspired intervention evaluated through mixed methods, integrating quantitative indicators (e.g., task completion rates, LMS logs) with qualitative insights from student reflections, focus groups, and staff interviews. Piloted in one first-year Bachelor of Information Systems (BIS) subject and now implemented in a second, it offers a scalable, institutionally aligned model for ethical GenAI literacy.
