How to Setup and Use the Copyleaks Course Data Tool for D2L/MyCourses

The Copyleaks Course Data tool provides easy access to instructors to review analytics.

This tool is optional.

You do not need to install it and use it. However, if you are interested in seeing the analytics for your entire course (ie: the amount of plagiarism and/or AI usage across the board) or the analytics for all submissions of one assignment (ie: how much plagiarism and/or AI is used in a particular essay), then this tool may be a good fit for you.

How to Install Copyleaks Course Data Tool in your course: 

1. Login to MyCourses and navigate to the course in which you'd like to use the Copyleaks Course Data tool. 
   
   
2. Add a module. Call it Copyleaks Course Data Module. 
   
   
   
   
   
3. Go to the Copyleaks Course Data Module. Select Add Existing Activities. From the dropdown menu, select Copyleaks Course Data (Optional).  
   
   
   
   
   
4. At first, it will be named AI Assessment Overview. Select the down arrow, select Edit Properties in Place, and hover your cursor over AI Assessment Overview until Edit Title for AI Assessment Overview pops up. Select the existing title, and rename the item Copyleaks Course Data tool.
   
   
   
   
   
   
   This is a screenshot of the Copyleaks Course Data tool (1) placed inside a module named Copyleaks Course Data Module (2).
   
   
   
   
   
5. In the top right corner there is a visible/hidden slider. Toggle it to hidden so students cannot see the module or its contents. 
   
   
   
   
   
6. The Copyleaks Course Data Tool installation is complete. Please note that you will need to complete these steps for each course where you wish to use this tool.

How to use Copyleaks Course Data Tool 

1. Course Data Overview: Go to your course and select the Copyleaks Course Data module. Then, select the Copyleaks Course Data tool. This is how to view an overview of the average AI content detected, average plagiarism score, and average writing corrections (if you have this option turned on for assignments, because in our instance, it is disabled by default).
   
   
   
   
   
2. Assignment Overview: Select an individual assignment to bring up the Assignment Overview. 
   
   
   
   
   In the Assignment Overview area, you have three options:
   
   
   
   
   
   1. View Assignment Settings brings you to the original assignment settings page.

   2. View Assignment Analytics shows the analytics for the individual assignment, including details on writing corrections by category, plagiarism usage and AI usage, and which sources were used to plagiarize. 
      
      
      
      
      
   3. View AI-Assessment Report brings you to a split panel page with options for Grading & Feedback, Matching, AI Content, and Writing Assistant. By default, Matching is selected, displaying the student's submission on the left and any matched text results on the right.
