Turnitin

All UCC faculty members are invited to use Turnitin. A Turnitin drop box is available for Distance Education instructors to use in the Lessons tab of the ANGEL platform.   http://www.turnitin.com

What is Turnitin?

Turnitin is a web-based comprehensive plagiarism prevention system service that: 

"...lets you quickly and effectively check all of your students’ work."

"Every paper submitted is returned in the form of a customized Originality Report. Results are based on exhaustive searches of billions of pages from both current and archived instances of the internet, millions of student papers previously submitted to Turnitin, and commercial databases of journal articles and periodicals."

This service is available to all Union County College faculty members including adjuncts.
