Discussions Redesign Survey
Canvas is currently seeking feedback with the launch of the Discussions Redesign tool. Please feel free to complete the survey to share about your experiences: Discussion Redesign. The survey should take no longer than 5-10 minutes to complete.
Copyleaks Teacher Scan Tool
The tool enables instructors to scan files and/or free text for plagiarism outside of an assignment. The tool is helpful for late submissions, non-assignment modules such as discussion board posts, and your own class materials. Instructors can view the similarity score of their uploads at a glance. You view instructions here.
Please note: AI scanning is disabled for our institution.

We are offering another Copyleaks workshop to help you get familiar with the tool and learn how to use the Teacher Scan Tool. Register today!
