Each educational environment is different. Be it due to a type of institution, variety of faculties, number of students enrolled, or a long list of additional criteria, it all makes up a unique system.
Educators working in Brightspace and managing their activities on a daily basis are creating a unique system, too. They require clear and intuitive layout, easy onboarding and high operational speed of all the tools they use. In a sensitive field of assessments’ evaluation, these requirements gain double priority, as taking a final decision should be based on accurate and meaningful results, especially when we are talking about preventing potential plagiarism in student papers.
Below is the account of how a similarities detection software fits effectively into a highly dynamic learning environment and how D2L, Brightspace and educational community have gained a trusted partner in Unicheck.
