Turnitin
Distance Education provides access to Turnitin Feedback Studio (opens new window) for APSU faculty to use in their courses. Turnitin Feedback Studio, often abbreviated to Turnitin, provides instructors with the tools to deter plagiarism and provide personalized feedback using rubrics, drag-and-drop, voice, and/or text comments. Turnitin use can help streamline the grading and feedback process for written assignments, improve student writing skills, and encourage original work.
Turnitin is integrated into the online classroom as an option within D2L Assignments. This integration ensures ease of access through single sign-on for faculty and students, creates the opportunity to link Turnitin Feedback Studio to the D2L Gradebook, and allows students to easily see when feedback is available for them.
After December 31, 2024, the optional instructor setting that evaluates assignment submissions for grammar, usage, mechanics, style, and spelling errors, called the ETS® e-rater, will be discontinued.
