Turnitin for Plagairism and AI Detection

Turnitin is the USF anti-plagiarism and citation-checking tool. It is integrated into Canvas and is easily configurable in Canvas assignments through a couple of menu clicks. In this course, we will demonstrate how the Turnitin similarity report is configured and generated and how Turnitin checks student submissions for similarity with other sources such as the web and works submitted to the Turntin database and journals. We will also look at how Turnitin can alert instructors to submission tricks like hidden characters and images and suspicious content. In addition, we will demonstrate Turnitin’s AI detection tool.
