As a reminder, Turnitin will be phased out after the fall 2024 semester and replaced by Copyleaks, which is now available in D2L for faculty to use. To get started, go to Add Existing Activities in a D2L Module, then choose either of the two new Copyleaks Tools.

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 also 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. Questions about Copyleaks? Please contact helpdesk@canisius.edu.
