Students have the ability to flag peer creations during the Evaluate stage if they believe there are issues with the content. This ensures that potential problems can be addressed promptly by instructors, improving the quality and integrity of peer evaluations.
How to Flag a Creation
If you come across a peer’s creation that seems problematic during the evaluation process, you can flag it for review by your instructor.
While in the Evaluate stage, look for the option to Flag Creation.
When flagging a creation, you’ll need to choose from the following options to specify the issue:
Potential plagiarism – If you suspect the creation has been copied from another source.
Potential AI content – If you believe AI tools have been used without proper disclosure.
Inappropriate content – If the submission contains offensive or inappropriate material.
Other – For any other issue not covered by the above categories.
Explain your reasoning: After selecting the issue, you may add an optional comment explaining why you flagged the creation. Be as specific as possible to help your instructor understand the problem. This is especially important if the "Other" option was chosen.
Once a creation has been flagged by a student for one of the specific reasons, other students will not be able to flag that creation for that same reason. Instead, that option will appear greyed out for other evaluators. When these students hover over the greyed out reason, there will be a tool tip that will inform them that the creation has already been flagged for that reason by another evaluator.
