Turnitin’s plagiarism prevention system lets you quickly and effectively check all of your students’ work, or lets your students check the originality of their work.

Every submitted paper returns a customized Originality Report. Results are based on exhaustive searches of

billions of pages from current and archived copies of the internet

millions of student papers previously submitted to Turnitin, and

commercial databases of journal articles and periodicals.

Turnitin is hosted entirely off-site and is 100% browser-accessible.
