Turnitin (Student Guide)

Turnitin is used at LJMU as a plagiarism, prevention, detection and academic integrity tool.

Once your assignment has been submitted via Canvas and Turnitin is switched on by your tutor the plagiarism check will commence. A similarity report will be created. You can view your Turnitin similarity report through the grades section by clicking on the coloured flag icon.
