A new plagiarism detection tool is a vailable to Fordham faculty this semester. SafeAssign is an alternative to Turnitin.com that integrates directly with our Blackbaord course management software. Instructors can create SafeAssign assignments in Blackboard, and any papers students submit will be automatically scanned before they are made available for grading in the gradebook. Instructors can also upload papers manually, one at a time, or in bulk.
Those who are familiar with Turnitin.com’s originality reports should will find SafeAssign very similar.
Mor information, including instructions on using SafeAssign and sample reports, is available at the SafeAssign support site: http://www.safeassign.com.
