How do I use IgniteAI Insights for Discussions?
In Discussions, the Discussion Insights Dashboard uses an AI-powered tool to help educators quickly evaluate the relevance and quality of student replies.
Notes:
- Students cannot access Discussion Insights or see evaluations of their replies.
- AI-generated relevancy scores and evaluation notes cannot be edited or overridden; they are intended to support instructors in grading.
- Results are available only within the Discussion Insights interface. However, if the Platform Usability Updates for SpeedGrader feature option is enabled, results are also visible in SpeedGrader.
- Grading still occurs in SpeedGrader; Discussion Insights does not impact grades.
- Rubrics are not considered in evaluations.
