In this workshop, we showed participants how to use Turnitin’s “Plagiarism Framework” integration with Canvas. This new integration allows the tools to work together more closely and efficiently. Turnitin is a plagiarism-prevention tool that helps you check the academic integrity of student writing. Specifically, we looked at:
-
- enabling Turnitin assignments within the existing Canvas assignment workflow,
- accessing Turnitin’s plagiarism checking via the Canvas SpeedGrader,
- grading and providing feedback on Turnitin submissions within the Canvas SpeedGrader, and
- viewing Turnitin’s potential plagiarism indicators directly in the Canvas Gradebook.
Session Date:
Thursday, June 27 | 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm

Eduardo Rebagliati and Kalisa Young
