16.4. How you can use the information provided by Turnitin
Before Turnitin is used on your assessed work, you will have the opportunity to view a Turnitin report on a draft version of your submission. This is available via the Draft Submission area on QMplus.
Key Points
- You will be able to access and review your own Similarity Report before making your final submission.
- No other student will be able to view your report or submission.
- This process is designed to help you understand how Turnitin works and to support the development of good academic writing, citation, and referencing practices.
