Turnitin for Students

There are a couple of ways for instructors to add Turnitin to their Canvas assignments. Use the guide below to determine the best way to submit your assignment and to review the feedback they give you.


Usually, your professor will set up submissions in Canvas so that they automatically go through the Turnitin database for plagiarism checking. However, if you would like to see a report BEFORE you submit your paper, you may use the Turnitin Draft Coach, a Microsoft Word Online/365 add-in.
