FAQ 261
How do I check my assignments with Turnitin before I submit them?

TurnitinUK does not make decisions about the intention of unoriginal work, nor does it determine if unoriginal content is incorrectly cited or indeed plagiarised.  It simply highlights sections of text that have been found in other sources to allow you to make an evaluation.

If you wish to check your work before you submit it you can freely and privately submit a piece of work for self-testing through our central plagiarism course area - the 'Develop your Academic Writing with Turnitin' area in Moodle.  Your tutor will have no access to work submitted through this module.
