How can I set the Canvas to check the homework assignments done by the students are copy/past or not?
Hi @MathieuRazavian,
You'll only have this option if your school/institution subscribes to a plagiarism checking service (like Turnitin or Copyleaks). If one of those is available you'll usually see a "Plagiarism Review" option when editing the assignment, or have an option to create an external tool assignment via the plagiarism detection vendor. Since community users won't really know what software your school/institution has purchased, it may be best to ask your local support team (usually in the Digital Education, IT, or eLearning areas) about this to get a more exact answer.
I hope this helps a bit!

Hi all, Quick question about the Gradebook color status for a 2-part checkpoint discussion. If a student completes the first due date (initial post) but does not complete the required replies by the second due date, is there any way for Canvas to automatically show a color (e.g., missing/late) instead of staying as…
Canvas Portfolios provide a powerful platform for students to document their learning journey, reflect on their progress, and showcase competencies. However, in programs where multiple educators are involved in assessment—such as team teaching, moderation, or competency-based evaluation—there are important questions about…
