What Is Turnitin?
Categories: Assessment Tools
Turnitin encourages student originality and provides instructors a tool to use in the detection of plagiarism in text-based assignments. Turnitin produces an "Originality Report" for a student's work by making comparisons that look not only for exact word-for-word matches but also for students' attempts to mask plagiarism by making superficial changes or mixing several sources without attribution.
At Clemson, Turnitin is integrated with Canvas, making it easy to create and distribute assignments in a familiar way for students.
*The app download is optional*
