Turnitin

I really enjoyed this assignment!  The first portion of the assignment was meant for showing us how the software works.  We copied and pasted materials to the document and saw how much it was similar to the original.  The main point of the assignment was to express how plagiarism can be caught with software such as Turnitin.  Plagiarism can cause a student to fail an assignment.  The second part of the assignment was to paraphrase the document into our own words and submit the work if it was less than 25% similar.  I think it was great exercise to show how easy it is to plagiarize without even knowing it.
