My teacher wants me to submit my work to Turnitin. How do I do that?
Answer
Resources about Turnitin at UWCSEA East can be found at bit.ly/turnitin-student
There you will find this document on Setting up a New Student Account.
Your teacher will give you two things: a Class ID and an Enrollment Password. Join a class, submit an assignment, and view the Similarity or Originality Report.
Remember: a paper may get a percentage of similarity that looks high, but is still okay if the text has been legitimately included and referenced, e.g., in an appendix. See the link to a Turnitin guide on interpreting the Similarity Report below.
Turnitin has produced a Quick-Start Guide for Students which you can read here.
Turnitin has also translated a lot of their manuals into other languages.
