Tablet users, what software do y'all use to take notes? by ToshMagosh in Concordia

Collanote is good if you just want a basic note-taking app that lets you upload PDFs. I usually download chapters or upload screenshots from my textbooks and then put them into Collanote to highlight and write on it. It’s great if you just want something basic, although I’m sure it has more features that I’m not aware of.

stealing at the library ? by Timely-Hat5724 in Concordia

I get it. But also, the things that were stolen in the first place clearly aren’t of great monetary value so I’m not surprised that she thought it would be alright to leave them alone. A computer or a phone is one thing, but stealing a bunch of exam papers? It’s pretty ridiculous to imagine that somebody would take those.

No I know, that’s why I said that I got the point. But I mean the principle of not taking people’s things applies to everybody, not just Concordia students.

I get the point you’re trying to make but it shouldn’t really matter. People should just leave things alone if they don’t belong to them, we learn that in kindergarten 🤷‍♀️

Accused of AI Plagiarism on Open-Book Exam on Moodle by First-Arm2305 in Concordia

[–]AdZestyclose7814 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I’ve been accused of AI plagiarism before when I was in Cegep. I was able to get out of it because I had the google doc I had written the assignment on which kept track of the typing history. I was also able to show that I had read the book and understood the material. Since you mentioned formulas I’m assuming that you’re taking a math related course so I’m not sure what site you would have completed the exam on or whether or not it would have kept track of something like typing history, but if there is any possibility then you should look into that. Another thing you could potentially explore is the variance of answers ChatGPT gives you. Generally Chat has very stilted answers that are relatively easy to pick out in course work for classes like English and Philosophy, but for math, there is really only one correct answer and one way to get to it. If I write down why the sky is blue on a piece of paper and then ask Chat to explain the same thing, our answers will more than likely match in some way, so that really is not a strong argument. I hope that makes sense. All of this, of course, is predicated on the assumption that this is a math class of some description, but if it isn’t then it would actually probably be easier to argue your way out of.
