Turnitin recently introduced an AI tool designed to assist instructors in detecting AI-generated content in student submissions. This tool potentially analyzes writing styles and may detect anomalies that could possibly indicate the use of generative AI. However, while this technology represents a significant step forward, caution is advised in its application. It’s important to recognize that the tool is not infallible and may not catch every instance of AI-generated content. Instructors should not rely on the AI tool to detect AI generated content, but rather, use it as one of several strategies in a comprehensive approach to uphold academic standards and encourage genuine student learning and creativity.
Managing your Subscriptions
To manage all subscriptions, click the Subscriptions link in the Discussions area
Choose which subscriptions you want to manage from the dropdown list

Otherwise, choose whether you wish to receive instant notifications or a daily summary of activity.
Note: This changes only the “default” selection. You are provided with the option to change your default notification method for a forum or topic each time you choose to subscribe to one.
