You can use Turnitin to check students’ submitted work for plagiarism. Turnitin checks essays and assignments for plagiarism with the help of a large database of publications, internet sources, and materials previously uploaded to Turnitin.
Privacy-sensitive information
The work students have submitted might contain privacy-sensitive information. This work will be used as a source for plagiarism checks for other submitted works both at and outside of Radboud University. Only Radboud University lecturers are able to view the content of the documents. Lecturers from a different institution will not be able to see these contents unless the owner of the source material provides explicit consent. This means that Turnitin guarantees the protection of privacy-sensitive data.
Which personal data Turnitin uses and how it is protected can be read in Turnitin's privacy policy.
Manual
Turnitin is integrated in Brightspace. For each assignment, you can turn on the plagiarism check under the Evaluation & Feedback heading.
Meanwhile, more comprehensive manuals are available. A recording of a training course on how to use Turnitin will follow later.
