What’s Happening at U of T
We are asking U of T instructors how they engage with generative AI tools in the teaching. As this section grows, we will include brief profiles and examples of assessments and offerings.
If you would like to share an assessment that uses generative AI, or an example of how you and your students engage with generative AI in your course, please complete this online form.

Generative Artificial Intelligence in the Classroom offers strategies for course and assessment design while keeping generative AI tools in mind.
There are a growing number of generative AI tools available and the capabilities of these tools is evolving at a rapid rate. Currently, Microsoft Copilot is the recommended generative AI tool to use at U of T. When a user signs in using University credentials, Microsoft Copilot conforms to U of T’s privacy and security standards (i.e., does not share any data with Microsoft or any other company). In addition, Contact North AI Tutor Pro and Contact North AI Teacher’s Assistant Pro conform to U of T’s privacy and security standards. Please be aware that any other generative AI tool used within a U of T course or organization that has not been vetted for privacy or copyright concerns should be used with caution. If you would like to learn more about the tools available in U of T’s academic toolbox, please visit ARC’s New Tools.
