Turnitin is a service for teaching staff to check the similarity of their students work to a range of sources in a classroom setting.

Teaching staff can enable similarity checking, which allows their students to submit their work to Turnitin.

Turnitin then generates a Similarity Report, highlighting the parts of the submitted paper which are similar to various sources.

Teaching staff are encouraged to use Turnitin as a learning tool, guiding students about academic integrity and allowing them to generate a report and re-submit the paper after revision.
