Viewing Results in the Gradebook & SpeedGrader

Back to Top

In your Canvas Gradebook, Copyleaks results are available directly alongside the assignment scores. You can view whether a student's submission has been flagged for plagiarism and how severely.

Note: The score for AI detection is not included in this view. You must view the full report or open the analytics for the assignment, as shown in the final section on this page, to view the AI score.

Go to your Canvas course and open Grades from the course menu.
Find the assignment that has Copyleaks enabled. You will see a colored tag next to the student's score. These are what the colors mean:
- These colors only indicate the plagiarism score, and does not factor in the AI score.
- Blue: No matching text
- Green: 1-24%
- Yellow: 25-49%
- Orange: 50-74%
- Red: 75-100%
Open the submission in SpeedGrader to view a more detailed score and open the full report.
1. Click the grade, then click the grade details/sidebar button.
2. Click SpeedGrader.
3. You can click on the colored percentage to open the full report.

Interpreting the Full Report

Back to Top

After opening the full report by clicking the percentage in SpeedGrader, here's how to read the full report.

When viewing the full report, you'll first notice the two tabs at the top for the Matched Text and AI Content scores. Clicking these will show you the full detail for each score. Matched Text corresponds to the plagiarism score.
For Matched Text, the bar on the right will list the sources that it matched the student's submission with. Clicking a source will show you more detail on that source. In this case, this paper is matching one that was previously submitted by another student in the "internal database." This shows 3 times because I have submitted this exact paper 3 times before.

Here's the view after clicking on one matched source, you can see the original submission date, and it will show which exact text matches:
For AI content, when you click on that score, it will highlight sections that are more likely AI, but there are no sources or "proof." Just an overall score. This means that AI scores are not actionable proof, they are just the start of a conversation with the student.
