The Turnitin software allowed the class to learn about copying and plagiarism software. This is especially important in today's society because students can just google everything and find information to use for their assignments that quick. Students then copy and paste this information into a document without ever reading or completing the assignment and turn it in for a grade. This is plagiarism and it is a huge problem in schools all across the United States. I was very interested in learning how to use, understand and publish the turnitin software. I can use this in my future classroom as a tool to detect illegal copying of others work. The standards that were used for this assignment were 3. NETS-T standard number three states "model digital age work and learning."In this assignment I gained the ability to work with students and parents to help detect illegal use of someone else's work aka plagiarism. Standard three states that the teacher is to "collaborate with students, peers, parents,and community members using digital tools and resources to support student success and innovation."
