Answers and explanations appear as you take the quiz.

1. How does a traditional plagiarism checker like Turnitin primarily work?
   • It matches the submission against large databases of existing text
   • It rewrites the essay automatically
   • It measures the student's typing speed
   • It scans for spelling errors only
2. Which input limitation did OpenAI document for its withdrawn AI-text classifier?
   • It worked only on handwritten paper
   • It was very unreliable on short texts below 1,000 characters
   • It required every text to have a verified author signature
   • It guaranteed correct classification of all English essays
3. Which writers faced disproportionate false positives in the cited 2023 detector study?
   • Only writers using handwritten submissions
   • Only professional fiction authors
   • Non-native English writers in the evaluated samples
   • Every writer in every language equally
4. What is a false positive in an AI-writing detector?
   • AI-generated text correctly flagged
   • A missing citation found by an instructor
   • A duplicate file removed from a folder
   • Human-written text incorrectly labeled as AI-generated
5. What did OpenAI do with its own AI-text classifier?
   • Withdrew it due to low accuracy
   • Made it mandatory in schools
   • Sold it to universities
   • Embedded it in every essay
6. Which assessment design can provide additional evidence of a student’s understanding?
   • Banning all writing assignments
   • An oral explanation or process portfolio considered alongside the submitted work
   • Increasing essay length requirements
   • Removing all citations
7. Why is a similarity score not itself a plagiarism finding?
   • Every overlap proves intentional misconduct
   • Similarity software determines intent
   • Matched text can have legitimate explanations and requires contextual review
   • A low score proves no copying occurred
8. How should an educator treat a detector flag on student writing?
   • As an automatic penalty trigger
   • As proof that the student used AI
   • As a replacement for course policy
   • As uncertain evidence that cannot establish authorship or misconduct by itself
