Q. What is Turnitin and how do I submit my work?

Turnitin is a piece of software used at The University of Sheffield as part of Electronic Management of Assessment (EMA). 

It is used as part of the process of submitting your work online for assessment through Blackboard. The software checks the text in your submission for similarity to other text, both online and in its extensive essay bank, as one part of the process of checking for plagiarism.

Please see the Academic Programmes and Student Engagement website for further details on the use of Turnitin.
