SIMILARITY REPORT
TURNTIN SIMILARITY REPORT
21% of this paper matches other sources
Highlights any text that matches sources in the Turnitin databases, and provides links to them.
WHAT IS A SIMILARITY REPORT?It displays the results of the text matches to internet sources
Checks:• Websites (& archived)• Student paper repository (Institutional & UK)• Some journals & publications
So it can:• Assist tutors in their professional academic judgment• Be used as a learning tool to help students check their work• Be used as part of academic integrity teaching strategy

SIMILARITY INDEX
23
HOW DOES IT HELP?• Assists in validation of the originality of students’ work• Provides equality of provision• Helps maintain standards and quality of awarded marks• Students can check poor paraphrasing and missing citations and improve their academic writing
