The college has access to SafeAssign (a similar plagiarism detection system) through our Blackboard Learn system. SafeAssign will now become the single plagiarism detection system available for use at LLCC.

A SafeAssign video tutorial can be found online, as part of the new Blackboard Support Center. Workshops on the use of SafeAssign have been scheduled for Friday, Sept. 6 and Tuesday, Sept. 17. Watch for the ITDE workshop schedule for detailed workshop information.

The Turnitin system will remain available through Blackboard through the end of the day on Monday, Sept. 2 to allow faculty members the ability to access and save any documents that need to be retained.Even though the Turnitin system will be available the first week of the fall semester, do not use the Turnitin system as part of any fall 2013 course work. The system’s availability during this time period is for backup purposes only.

This document provides you with step-by-step instructions on how to access and save documents from the Turnitin system.

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions,

Becky Parton, associate dean, Instructional Technology & Distance Education
