What is a Turnitin originality report, and where can I find samples?
When an instructor or student submits a paper to Turnitin.com, the paper is compared to Turnitin's primary databases. Turnitin then generates an originality report, which indicates whether the student properly cited all sources and if additional measures or help may be warranted.
At IU Bloomington, to view and discuss a sample originality report, contact CITL. At other campuses, contact your campus teaching and learning center for availability.
Turnitin.com offers guides and user manuals. Note that PeerMark is available only from the Turnitin site, not through Oncourse. Most GradeMark options are available through Oncourse, but students will be unable to view comments until after the due date for an assignment. For information about pilot testing these two features, contact your campus teaching and learning center.

Instructors at IUB may submit academic misconduct reports online.
