AI & Academic Integrity: Originality Matters

Tue, 24 Mar 2026

The webinar commenced with the Resource person introducing the different features of plagiarism-detecting software- Turnitin. Turnitin is an academic integrity tool designed to help students and educators ensure originality in their work. By submitting a document to Turnitin, users receive a similarity report that compares their text against a vast database of academic papers, publications, and web content. The report highlights matching or closely similar text and provides a similarity score, allowing users to identify areas that may need proper citation or revision. The resource person explained the workflow for submitting assignments and how instructors can use the feedback tool. Grading features of the online tool were also explained. Overall, the tool supports good writing practices by promoting proper referencing, reducing plagiarism, and encouraging critical thinking and originality in academic work.
