Guide To Turnitin

Turnitin is an online plagiarism detection service used widely throughout tertiary education. When you submit an assessment electronically via Turnitin, the system compares it to an extensive range of databases and online sources as well as to assessments submitted by other students.

You can submit your assignment from any computer that is connected to the internet and it is a very quick and easy process. Turnitin will generate a “Similarity Index” for your tutor or marker to review and assess whether some material is plagiarised. You can look at the report yourself and make adjustments to the assignment and re-submit it before the final submission date.
