Turnitin is a plagiarism-checking engine integrated into Canvas LMS that composes the student\u2019s work into one database and checks for originality while comparing it with other internet sources. Through this, Turnitin is able to detect any plagiarism that appears on the student\u2019s work and shows a percentage of the amount of plagiarism by color-coding matching passages, sourcing the matched cite, and allowing for direct feedback. By providing this tool to instructors nationwide, students are held more accountable for their original work as well as, a faster grading process.<\/p>\n
