Google Docs Draftback to See Typing History

When learners are utilizing Google Docs you can use the Draftback Chrome extension to review their edits on the document like a movie. You can use this to watch college student progress or to detect plagiarism in Google Docs.

Draftback is a Chrome extension. It does NOT collect consumer info. On the other hand, it may well be blocked by your Google Workspace Applications Admin. Make sure you contact them to have it unblocked because quite often extensions are blocked by default by your faculty.

Utilizing Draftback

Following installing the Draftback Chrome extension you will see a button in the higher right of the doc indicating how a lot of revisions there are. Click on the revision to see a video clip of what seems to be like the scholar typing the document.

Detect Plagiarism in Google Docs

If you suspect a pupil of plagiarizing you can use Draftback to see if they pasted a substantial amount of money of text at the moment. Observe in the animation higher than that it demonstrates typing character by character.

If you are a Google Classroom user you can also use the plagiarism tool. It only will work on Google Docs, as does Draftback.
