4. Turnitin instructions/plagiarism:
Coursework is to be uploaded to the Turnitin Assignment through your class Moodle page, in order to maintain academic integrity and high standards of coursework. You will need to be logged in as yourself, and to upload your work to your specific course. It is very important not to upload to another course. The Turnitin Assignment will be open two weeks before the essay deadline for editing and proofreading. When starting your assignment, please refer to the Plagiarism Moodle page, where you should watch the videos and do the activities. You can, and should, edit your essay as many times as you like before the deadline. Before your Similarity Report is ready, you will see the word ‘pending’: submissions take up to 24 hours, whereas resubmissions will always take 24 hours. When you have uploaded your final draft, which is suggested no later than 24 hours before the deadline, wait for the Similarity Report. Print out your Similarity Report, staple it to another clean copy of your final draft, and submit both, with a completed cover sheet, to the Drop Box at the Welcome Desk. The stamp on the cover sheet is considered the time of submission – not the time on the Turnitin Assignment. For more information about plagiarism and Turnitin, you should explore the Plagiarism Moodle Page, and read your Handbook.
