About this article

This article includes an overview of the Turnitin tools, known collectively as Turnitin Feedback Studio, available at WSU. It is intended for all students.

What Turnitin does

WSU has a license to Turnitin's Feedback Studio. Feedback Studio allows the professor to quickly and easily perform the following operations:

  • Check for potential plagiarism
    Turnitin checks the students paper against billions of web pages and millions of student papers and scholarly works for possible plagiarism. Results are found quickly and shown to the professor in an easy-to-understand way. Turnitin can parse the following file types:
    • Microsoft Word (.doc / .docx)
    • OpenOffice Text (.odt)
    • Google Docs via Google Drive (.gdoc files are NOT acceptable)
    • WordPerfect (.wpd)
    • PostScript (.ps/.eps)
    • Adobe PDF
    • Microsoft PowerPoint (.pptx, .ppt, .ppsx, and .pps)
    • Microsoft Excel (.xls and .xlsx)
    • HTML
    • Rich text format (.rtf)
    • Plain text (.txt)
    • Hangul Word Processor file (.hwp)
  • Check grammar, spelling, usage, mechanics, and style
    Feedback Studio checks for many of the most common writing errors and flags them automatically.
  • Parse for common writing problems
    Common writing issues like run-on sentences, awkward wording, citation issues, and much more are automatically found and flagged.
  • Use drag-and-drop comments
    No needs to retype comments you use often, just drag and drop them from the comment gallery.
  • Leave voice comments
    Easier and faster than typing, voice comments are more personal and help to reenforce the personal connection between the professor and the students.
  • Grade by rubric
    Create writing rubric in Turnitin and give fast, consistent comments to the students in your class.

Turnitin integrates into Brightspace so there is no need to jump between applications during the assessment process.
