Auto marking written assignments

[RicardoMahshi]

Hi,

My question is about Canvas performing a quick auto-marking function. (not sure if Canvas has it).

For example: When a student submits a written essay with in-text citations and a references list. Will it be possible for Canvas to scan through the submitted assignment the way Turnitin does and highlight referencing problems?  And then give marks for that part only?

That would be a great feature if it was developed by Instructure for Canvas, @RicardoMahshi, but it isn't there yet. I encourage you to submit it as a feature suggestion. That process is described on a page here in the Instructure Community:
