This session will provide hands-on training for enabling and reviewing Turnitin originality report. During this process, you will gain an understanding of how Turnitin works and its limitations.

There will also be a discussion around the research emerging in the area of contract teaching where students pay others to complete their coursework.

This is a really useful resource about contract cheating.
