  25. Now let’s try copy and pasting an entire page from Wikipedia In TIN, it gets a 99% match

  26. Blackboard Originality Report

  27. What doesn’t it look at? • Exclusions include: • Content after: bibliography, references and workscited section • Anything in double quotes or block quotes • Exclude small sources base on percentages or # of words

  28. How big is the student paper repository? • 69 billion webpages archived over 8 years. Even content that’s taken down • 1 billion student paper database • 183 million from over 1,000 publications (emerald, sage, gale, acumen, grade guru, and EBSCO).

  30. Expected Questions Does it integrate with Discussion Boards? • No. This feature may be coming soon, but there’s no concrete planed date for. Can it detect self-plagiarism? If student re-submits a paper to same class, it WILL NOT cause a match to that student. However, it will match in a different course, as it’s considered self-plagiarism. The concept is students should be submitting new original work for their other classes and not recycle paper.
