Community reviews for Turnitin

Students learn very quickly that cutting and pasting is not an option in written work.

This is an incredibly useful tool. The students don't always like the plagiarism-catching aspect of it; they feel like it's trying to "catch" them, but the combination of giving feedback during the writing process and receiving an originality report with the final draft really helps them understand the importance of creating their own, original writing.

This site is a resource that most schools need to implement. Once it is set up, students log on to their account to turn in a paper. It is automatically checked for originality and teachers can also provide personalized feedback as well as peer evaluation. I like the ease of use and all the different functions the website offers.
