AI in Teaching

AI is an abbreviation for Artificial Intelligence and has many applications, such as Alexa, Siri, robot vacuums, customer service chatbots, self-driving cars, ChatGPT, and many others.

Temple has established a blanket policy that the use of generative AI tools is prohibited for students, unless an instructor explicitly grants permission.

We encourage you to articulate your stance on the use of these tools in your syllabi.
Turnitin’s AI detector tool will be available for faculty.
You must request access and complete a brief asynchronous training on Turnitin’s AI detector before the tool will be enabled.
Please login to TUhelp, click on "Request Help", then select the "Turnitin AI Detector" option to submit your request.

For more detailed information on AI use at Temple, see the CAT’s A Faculty Guide to A.I.
If you have questions about these policies, feel free to reach out to Stephanie Fiore at sfiore@temple.edu
