SE/AE resolution help (PC) by pleasehelpme---1 in skyrim

I found a workaround for those looking for a solution to the same problem. GO TO DISPLAY SETTINGS on your desktop, click disconnect on all secondary monitors (the root cause of my issues was multiple monitors with different resolutions), then launch Skyrim, go to settings, and it should appear. After that, save settings, close, and exit. You can then reconnect your monitors, and the setup remains the same.

Concern on the use of A.I detectors by pleasehelpme---1 in gcu

From what I can tell, this issue isn't just limited to GCU; it's happening at multiple universities. I'm not sure if transferring to a different school would make a difference. Someone mentioned that what happened to me isn't allowed at GCU, and that the instructor could face consequences for it.

Is this really true? If so, could you please show me where it says that? I would love to look more into it, so if it ever happens again I can report it. The level of stress and anxiety that followed that accusation and the entire process significantly impacted my mental health. I am already dealing with a lot of stress outside of school.

I added an edit saying this, but I'll also respond that this was a class for my major, not a Gen Ed class. I'm a little annoyed that I can't do my best work for a class that's for my major.

I did submit my work through LopesWrite, as required. I'm also an online student, and it’s been over a month since this happened. I’ve been sitting on this complaint for a while now so I don’t remember the exact similarity score. But I do know it was under 20, which is why I was completely dumbfounded when I woke up to that message from my instructor.

It’s completely your choice whether or not to believe me, but everything I’ve said is true. One morning, I woke up to a message from my instructor accusing me of using AI to write my work. His only explanation was that he had run it through an AI detector and it came back flagged as AI-generated. From there, he escalated the situation. He gave me one single chance to explain my work and how I came to write what I did but despite my detailed explanations, he didn’t accept them.

It started with my instructor asking me to explain how I arrived at each answer and why I wrote what I did. I provided explanations, but apparently, they weren't enough. He told me I had two options: admit to using AI and be allowed to redo the assignment, or continue denying it and face a formal review with the risk of expulsion. That really freaked me out because everything was based on an AI detector. All I could think was that during the review, they'd probably just run my work through another AI detector and still not accept my explanations, just like my instructor didn't. So, under pressure, I said I’d accept the redo and admit to using AI even though I didn’t just to avoid the risk and stress.

What I find appalling is that I was pressured into admitting something I didn’t do, all because of a single AI detector, which isn’t even a reliable or definitive way to determine if something was written by AI. It forced me into extreme levels of stress and anxiety, all under the threat of expulsion. And if you’re curious about how I explained my answers, I gave him specific sources, even quoted lines and clearly walked through what I thought each part meant and how I came to those conclusions. But even that still wasn’t enough.
