The straight forward answer to the question: Can Blackboard detect copy and paste is Yes. Blackboard has a tool called SafeAssign that checks if your work is similar to other sources. It's good at finding if you've copied stuff from the internet or other papers.

Blackboard can't detect you switch tabs during a quiz by itself. It mainly uses tools like SafeAssign for checking if you copied, proctoring software to watch how you take tests, and lockdown browsers to keep the test secure. Blackboard doesn't directly detect switching tabs.

Blackboard on its own does not scan student work for plagiarism and AI detection, but TurnItIn and SafeAssign do. Since most teachers these days use one (or both) of these tools to check student work, it's very likely that any AI-generated work will be flagged when it is turned in.

Absolutely! Online exam systems often come equipped with built-in data forensics tools that act like detectives, analyzing test-taking patterns for any suspicious behavior. Frequent switching between tabs, accessing unauthorized websites, or unusual activity flags, all raise red flags for teachers.
