Per previous communications, Turnitin will be phased out after this Fall Semester.
Copyleaks is our replacement for Turnitin, which is available now in D2L for faculty to use. This new tool is easy to use. To get started, click on Add Existing Activities in a D2L Module. Then, choose either of the two new Copyleaks Tools available.
The Assignment Tool allows faculty to create Copyleaks Assignment Dropboxes, where students can upload their written assignments. Faculty can set the Copyleaks Assignment Tool to scan the student’s work as soon as they submit or after the Due date.
The Copyleaks Teacher Scan Tool allows faculty to upload individual documents for scanning. We recommend creating a new course module for this tool and hiding it from students, or at least hiding the tool itself.
Interested in learning more about Copyleaks? Check out the available tutorials on the Copyleaks Wiki page! As the tool is still new to Canisius, more tutorials will be coming in the future.
