Turnitin

http://turnitin.com

Turnitin is a suite of writing evaluation tools available to instructors (and students) through Sakai.

The Turnitin suite includes:

  • Originality Check -- helps detect plagiarism and "non-original" student writing
  • GradeMark -- provides a "paperless-grading" system for giving students feedback on their writing (includes e-rater feature)
  • PeerMark -- facilitates peer review so students can give each other anonymous, structured feedback

For a more in-depth overview, see the Turnitin Suite product page at turnitin.com.
