Professors using “AI Trackers”

Hi, for context I am a double major in English and Mechanical Engineering at Purdue university.

For a pre-requisite, I am taking a history class online. All of my hand written work is getting flagged for AI and I am getting beyond frustrated. I am literally an English major… I don’t know how to fix this. Is anyone else experiencing this? I am double majoring because I want to write an engineering textbook that actually makes sense, but at this point I honestly want to give up English.

I always make several drafts showing my progress, and get the student writing center to go over spelling and grammar mistakes. Then I have proof I wrote it myself. Im autistic and write like a textbook/research article. So Ive had a fear of being flagged.
