Online Resources
Turn it in - (www.turnitin.com )
If you think you're skillful with cut and paste for your assignment, try this out! Turnitin helps lecturers identify the amount of cut-and-paste found in assignments. You can beat them to it by checking it first and correcting the crime on the spot. By the way, it's called plagiarism.
This service is provided free to all staff and students in KDU College. To use, you'd need to sign up as a New User. Get the Class ID and Enrollment Password from us (tlc@kdu.edu.my) to get started!
For Turnitin usage guidelines, please see here (pdf file).
