I use the same assignments from year to year. I link them through Google Drive and each student is given a copy.
Is there a way to see if a student is using the exact same content they turned in the year before?
Hi @JACOBCOLEMAN,
You'd need to use some sort of plagiairsm detection system to do that. Unfortunately, none of the systems that I know which plug into Canvas would work with external tool assignments. If you just give a link to a google drive document, have students fill it in, then download a PDF/word version from Google and upload it to Canvas that could work though. Plagiarism Detection Systems would usually have a yearly license cost associated with them as well, so it would be something your school/institituon would need to decide to purchase.
Hope this info helps!

Hi @JACOBCOLEMAN ,
Are you using the Google Assignments (LTI 1.3) integration to distribute the Google Docs? If so, then you should find a folder called "Assignments" in your Google Drive. Canvas created that folder (or possibly multiple folders over time) to hold all the student assignments "shared" with you via Google. If you have the same students year to year, all of their assignments should be in a folder somewhere on your Drive, so you can find and compare them if you suspect that someone is re-submitting prior work.
The fact that the teacher's gradebook view only displays the letter grade in the "override" column makes it difficult for the teacher to review grades, as the numerical grade entered cannot be determined in that view.
Screen readers seem to read out the LaTex and not the equation.
Whenever possible, I prefer to have my students take in-class quizzes and tests on their laptops. But to make sure that they do it in the classroom, I've always put a password on the assessment and then given them the password. That way they can't take it somewhere else on their own (or somewhere else, not on their own).…
I use Respondus 4.0 for loading questions to my pools in Bb and now that we have moved to Canvas, I want to load them to an Item Bank. However, to do this, I need to have them downloadable as a QTI 2.1 option. My options or limited. #1 I can load to a Classic Quiz which my university does not prefer, download the questions…
