CAP Workshop - Improving students assessments with TurnitinUK

Mon 10 Nov 11:15 - 12:15


Want to improve your students' academic writing? Did you know that TurnitinUK can help? Even if you are familiar with TurnitinUK, it now has an improved interface so this is also an opportunity to find out how that works. TurnitinUK is an online service that can be accessed via the HUB and that enables students to compare their work with a range of electronic sources including the internet and electronic databases. The service then provides an 'originality report' that students can use to improve the quality of their referencing and paraphrasing. The report may also suggest sources that the student may have missed.
