NOTE: This assignment has the classroom TII (TurnItIn) feature turned on. This means that once your assignment has been submitted to this area, it will automatically be submitted to Turnitin.com database to generate an Originality Report with an Originality Index. It takes anywhere from a minute to 24 hours (or longer) for this report to be generated and returned to the classroom assignment area. Check often to see if the report has been generated.
The acceptable criteria for the Originality Index (matching percent) in this course is a maximum of 15%, which means 15% of the submitted paper has been matched with sources in the database and hence is not original to the student’s work not including your references. Turnitin is used in this class to assess the originality of your work–you must have less than 15% Similarity/matching. Paraphrase instead of using direct quotes to reduce your matching percent to 15% or less.
