Revisely Integrates GPTZero to Detect AI-Generated Text in Student Documents

14 abril 2023

Revisely, a leading grading and feedback platform for teachers and professors, has announced the integration of GPTZero, a new tool designed to detect AI-generated text in student documents. This integration will aid in maintaining academic integrity and preventing plagiarism.

The CEO of Revisely, Jeroen Fransen, highlighted the challenge that teachers face in not being able to differentiate between text written by students and AI models. “With the integration of GPTZero, we are providing our users with an essential tool that will help them identify and take appropriate action in cases where AI-generated text is detected,” Fransen added.

GPTZero is an advanced AI language tool that can identify text generated by other AI models, such as #ChatGPT. When a teacher or lecturer receives a student’s document for grading, the GPTZero tool within Revisely can scan the document for AI-generated text. If any such text is detected, it will be highlighted and labeled for the teacher’s review.GPTZero Revisely detector

Revisely is committed to providing innovative tools and features that enhance the grading and feedback process for educators. This integration with GPTZero is a significant step in maintaining academic integrity while providing valuable insights to its users. By integrating GPTZero, Revisely is also continuing its mission of providing educators with efficient solutions that maintain academic integrity while helping students receive the feedback they need to succeed.

Start the new school year well!

31 agosto 2022

The new school year is about to start! To get off to a good start, we have been working hard this summer to further improve Revisely with new features! We are happy to inform you about this and to let you know more about the new correction platform that we are developing, which makes it possible to outsource your correction work to a professional so that you can save time!

First, a brief overview of all the improvements:

  • Ratings
    It is now possible for students to rate the feedback that was given on their assignment by the teacher, peer grader or external corrector. Rating is optional. Would you like to make use of this? Please let us know!
    .
  • Possibility to personalise Revisely on an organisation-specific basis
    It is now possible to have a personalised view of Revisely. Depending on whether you teach at a secondary school or university, you will only see the appropriate terms for this, such as ‘pupils’ or ‘students’, ‘workgroups’ or ‘classes’. Is this not visible yet? Let us know and we will take care of it for you!
  • Push notifications
    Important notifications such as when you can start correcting an assignment can now be shown as push notifications within Revisely. If you prefer not to receive notifications, you can simply decline this option.
  • Timeline
    The progress of the assignment is now clearly displayed in a timeline. Here you can see the percentage of assignments handed in by students and how many of them you have already marked. This gives you a clear overview of the progress.

  • The Peer grading option within Revisely has been further improved. This includes the ability to do multi-stage peer grading, easier editing of peers and the ability to assign peer graders after the students have submitted their assignments to the teacher.
  • We accidentally counted documents in draft version as submitted when typed directly into Revisely. This problem is now solved.
  • We have expanded the languages in which Revisely is available to include Italian, French, German and Ukrainian.

    TheyCorrect: the correction platform

    You can outsource your correction work via Revisely and we are going to make that increasingly easier. For all assignments you have created via Revisely, you can use the TheyCorrect button to have them corrected by an external professional. This reduces the teacher’s workload, combats the teacher shortage, ensures that students can learn online and that they receive more qualitative feedback.

    We are currently in the pilot phase. Would you like to be put on the waiting list for professionals to correct your assignments? Sign up here!

    I would like to use TheyCorrect!

Burnout in het onderwijs

13 abril 2022

Veel mensen die niet in het onderwijs werken, hebben een rooskleurig beeld van het beroep. Veel vakanties en korte werkdagen zijn veel gehoorde redenen. In de werkelijkheid komt bij lesgeven veel meer kijken. Cijfers over het aantal leraren met een burn-out zijn schrikbarend. Dit betekend niet dat er geen oplossingen zijn.

Volgens de cijfers van het CBS heeft 1 op de 5 medewerkers een burnout in het onderwijs. Onderwijs scoort hiermee het hoogste van alle beroepsgroepen. De cijfers liegen er ook niet om als je kijkt naar de hoeveelheid onderwijzers die stoppen met het werken in het onderwijs binnen 5 jaar. In het voortgezet onderwijs is dit 25% en in het basisonderwijs ongeveer 12%.

Het lesgeven is de kerntaak in het onderwijs en daarvoor zijn docenten opgeleid. Daar ligt hun passie en expertise, dat is waar de baan om draait. Juist alle taken eromheen kunnen docenten gemakkelijk uitputten.

“Het lesgeven lukt wel maar al die taken eromheen, buiten de klas, dat maakt het pas zwaar!”

New features added to Revisely!

10 febrero 2021

We continue to work hard to further improve your user experience in Revisely! We have added a few new features in the application. Here is a brief overview:

      • Overview of progress
        In order to give you a clear picture of the progress of the assignment, we have added a progress bar to the Assignments page within Revisely. Go to an assignment you created in the Assignments page and see the percentage of completion for each phase.

        • Better management of added/deleted students
          If you also have the rights to see the ‘administration pages’ in Revisely, you can find some new changes here as well. It is now easier to see which students are active in Revisely as it demonstrates an icon of a green thumb after their name. You can also easily edit and/or delete an account. The icon of the key allows you to easily send the login data of the respective student.

    • Option to submit documents of different types of files possible again
      If, when creating a new assignment, the option is selected to have your students upload their document (instead of typing it into Revisely), they can upload many other types of files besides only PDF files. These can be, for example, Word, PowerPoint, Excel or HTML files. Please note that uploading a PDF file will give the best result. With other files, there is a possibility that the layout will look different from what the student had in mind. We recommend that students always double check the file in Revisely when the upload of a file is completed.
  • Mail confirming download of student data or assignment is completed
    When you want to download data from Revisely, you no longer have to wait on the page for the download to be completed. In the meantime, you can continue, for example, with the correction of assignments and you will receive an e-mail as soon as the download is completed.

Edtech policy is failing globally and needs a ‘critical update’, finds new report by Varkey Foundation’s Atlantis Group

11 noviembre 2019

A new report published today by the Varkey Foundation’s Atlantis Group of 26 former education ministers and heads of government, has found that Edtech is failing to fulfil its promise in classrooms throughout the world and that policy governing its use needs a critical update. Former minister of education in The Netherlands and co-founder of Revisely, Jo Ritzen, is part of the Varkey Foundation’s Atlantis Group. He agrees edtech has great promise but struggles to deliver, often due to political rather than technological reasons.

The Atlantis Group’s report, which was produced following extensive discussions with leading Edtech company CEOs, teachers and academics outlines a range of shortcomings, not least technology’s failure so far to demonstrably improve learning. The report, System failure: Why Edtech policy needs a critical update, found that whilst technology should be working to save teachers time, when tech fails to work properly it can have the opposite effect.

Other problems highlighted in the report include a lack of independent evidence making it hard to know which technology, applications, and systems are effective and which are not. Developers face heavily localized procurement making it difficult to scale-up successful tech. Teachers, often enthusiastic about tech, are let down by inadequate systems or their own lack of training.

The report calls on governments to take action across four key areas:

  • Prioritize evidence-gathering about Edtech, setting up testbed schools and keeping updated about initiatives across the world.
  • Support teachers by listening to their needs and training them adequately to use learning tech.
  • Make sure the right products reach the market by publishing clear purchasing guidelines.
  • Make learning technologies part of the wider education strategy by setting up a cross-sector Edtech task force.

Vikas Pota, Chairman of the Varkey Foundation said:

“The great tragedy right now is that learning technologies are still an afterthought. Today, just a handful of the world’s governments have anything resembling a working Edtech policy. Examples of best-practice are few and far between. The political narrative about technology in education is worryingly similar to that of 50 years ago. Real change, we are told, is always just 10 years away. Our world does not have another 10 years to get it right.

“It’s no secret that education policymaking struggles to keep up with the pace of technology. But it shouldn’t stand still. Around the world, major industries and business have spent decades preparing for a future that they know will be dominated by tech. Ministers of education desperately need to start doing the same. The answer won’t be found just by putting more computers in classrooms but by addressing the political blockages that too often prevent Edtech from succeeding.”

The Atlantis Group was launched at the Global Education & Skills Forum (GESF) 2017 by global education charity the Varkey Foundation. Revisely took part in the Forum and was in the finals to win the Next Billion EdTech Prize 2018.

New release of Revisely is now online!

5 noviembre 2019

At Revisely, we love feedback. Not only the feedback you give to students, but also the feedback that is aimed at us to further improve the application. We did several bug fixes and added improvements to increase the user experience further. The application has the following improvements:

  • Added option for teacher admin role to list information by groups
    Some teachers can be given an extra admin role where it is possible to view the groups and assignments of other teachers. With the ‘only my groups’ option it is now possible to easily limit the information to only your own groups/classes.
  • Status team assignment is now synchronised with all team-members.
    When one of the members of a team hands in a text, the status for all students in the team is then set as ‘Being processed’. Once the document has been processed, the status is changed accordingly for all team members.
  • Functionality to make free annotations at the document that was handed-in
    Previously, it was only possible to give feedback by selecting bits of text. Now it is possible to create a ‘free’ annotation in the document. This means that you do not necessarily need to select a bit of text to link a comment to, but that you can do this anywhere in the document. Apply a long mouse click (longer than normal) in the spot where you would like to make a comment. A menu is then displayed showing you the option to add the usual positive, critical or open comment. Use this to add comments to a graphic, photo or open space! 
  • Default option to let texts be handed-in as a PDF.
    When a new assignment is created, the default option is set to handing in the assignment by uploading a document (Word/PDF etc.) for the students. The default option used to be ‘typing or pasting in the text in Revisely’.
  • Added the possibility to allow late hand-ins for peer grading and team hand-in assignments
    Previously, if an assignment had the peer grading and/or team hand-in option activated, you couldn’t activate the option for hand-ins after the deadline. Now you can!
  • Alert mail send to team-members
    An alert mail is sent to all members of a team if there was an error in uploading the text to Revisely so they can all take steps to remedy.
  • Extra filters
    We added filters in the assignments list, groups list, students list and teachers list so you can more easily narrow down your search.
  • Warning message is shown when mail is not send.
    Only for users with access to the beta or test environment, we now indicate clearly that mails are not actually sent to users.
  • Send an email when the GPRD data is ready to download
    When you request a download of your privacy-related data from Revisely, you receive an email when the download is ready so you don’t have to wait.
  • Added a better download from report files
    When downloading reports concerning assignments, very large assignments caused problems. We fixed this so also these reports can be downloaded without problems.
  • Bugfix when specifying evaluation criteria when creating a new assignment
