Academic Model

Academic Model:

Academic model is an AI detection model specifically designed to help students and teachers identify AI-generated content in academic writing. With 99%+ accuracy and a <1% false positive rate, it's a go-to choice for those looking to support student learning about AI tools with confidence.

• The Academic model is designed to detect AI-generated text in STEM-related assignments (including coding and formulas). 
• Students: peace of mind with our Chrome Extension and maintaining transparency, while overall improving writing.
• Teachers: insight into the authenticity of assignments, supporting student learning, and saving time on assignment reviews.

The Benefits for Students and Teachers

Some may think that AI detectors are just for teachers, but they actually offer benefits for students as well.

For students

The benefits of Originality.ai for students include:

• Avoiding false positives and improving writing. Students striving for high-quality writing can use the free Chrome extension to prove their writing is their own. Plus, using Originality.ai before submission is a great way to identify which sections of text might need amendments.
• Built-in plagiarism detection and other tools. In addition to an AI detector, students can also use Originality.ai’s Content Scanner to check for plagiarism, verify facts, and improve grammar.
• Integration with Moodle LMS. Since Moodle doesn’t detect AI itself, students can conveniently use Originality.ai’s Moodle plugin for AI detection right inside the Moodle LMS platform.
• Learning responsible AI use. AI tools can be great for brainstorming and research, but they shouldn’t be used to generate text for assignments. 

Overall, Originality.ai helps students understand what low-quality AI writing looks like and encourages them to produce original work that’s their own — something that’s only going to become more important as AI is increasingly integrated into everyday learning.

For teachers

The benefits of Originality.ai for teachers are clear:

• Keeps grading fair and consistent. Not every student uses or even has access to generative AI tools. Addressing likely AI-assisted writing helps level the playing field.
• Maintains academic integrity. Taking steps to identify probable AI text in assignments can help ensure everyone completes and submits work that’s in line with school policy.
• More efficient reviews. Teachers have enough on their plates. Quick scans, a convenient Moodle integration, and clear AI probability scores can help save time.
• Supports student learning. Instructors can view text highlighted to see where students could further develop their writing skills. And if AI was used, it opens up conversations about responsible AI use.
• Reduced mental load. Having a reliable AI detection tool in place means teachers can transparently identify probable AI text without the stress.

In other words, Originality.ai gives educators more confidence and efficiency in identifying AI-generated text in the classroom while presenting even more teaching opportunities.
