What is Turn-It-In: is an online grading tool that improves the student writing process by

preventing plagiarism, writing citations and paraphrasing better, and providing teachers the

opportunity to deliver rich feedback to students on their written work.

Features of Turn-It-In:

Originality Report – Identifies matched content by comparing papers against 35 billion

current & archived web pages, 300 million student papers, and 130 million academic

articles.

GradeMark – Allows the teacher to type comments, use a set of QuickMark comment

bank responses, and audio feedback with grading by points or by rubric using the built in

Rubric Manager in Turn-It-In

PeerMark – When set by the teacher in the assignment, it will allow students to read,

review, and score or evaluate one or many papers submitted by their classmates.

Students will be able to read the comments left on their own work. It randomly

distributes the assignments to each student to review and they are anonymous to what

specific student they are reviewing as long as the students do not type their name on

the paper.
