Introduction
Inspera Originality offers a range of institutional settings that, when enabled, become available options in the assignment configuration process. Settings at this level enable across-the-board customization for institutions, allowing them to tailor their approach to assessing submissions as opposed to using a one-size-fits-all solution.
Note: Institutional settings define the available functionalities of the tool, but it is up to users to decide whether or not to include made-available features when configuring an assignment except for Content Access.
Understanding Institutional Settings
Translation similarity - Administrators can choose up to 3 languages for the translation similarity analysis will become the default languages for this setting across the tool. However, users can adjust the selected languages during the assignment configuration process by educators.
AI Prediction - Enabling this option includes the AI Authorship analysis in the Originality report. The AI Authorship analysis presents key information on AI prediction findings and provides classifications based on the predicted level of AI-generated content.
Archive Submissions - Administrators can enable this setting to allow educators to archive student submissions. These archived submissions are used to create a dedicated repository for future reference, helping to detect potential student collusion within the institution.
Submission pre-check - Enabling this setting provides student users with the option to pre-check their documents before submission. This feature promotes academic integrity by encouraging users to review their work for potential issues in advance, thereby supporting the maintenance of high standards.
Contextual similarity - Enabling this option includes the contextual similarity analysis in the Originality Report. This comparative analysis examines how closely two sentences match in the message and overall context. Additionally, the analysis takes into account other elements such as sentence similarity and word proximity.
Thresholds - Administrators can set a percentage threshold for contextual similarity, determining the level at which a sentence is considered contextually similar. The default percentage is applied initially, but educators can adjust it during the assignment configuration process.
Content Access - Defines if and how the content of the archive submission repository is accessible by other institutions using Inspera Originality, including options such as restricted, open, and closed.
- Open indicates that the archive repository of your institution is accessible to other institutions
- Closed indicates that the archive repository of your institution is not accessible to other institutions
- Restricted indicates that the archive repository of your institution is accessible to other institutions upon request.
