TurnItIn
TurnItIn is the originality detection service available through NYU Brightspace. Before using TurnItIn, it is important to understand the implications under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA) regarding student work. Once a student submits an assignment or a piece of work to an instructor, this work then is considered an education record under FERPA. (For more information regarding FERPA at NYU, please see www.nyu.edu/about/policies-guidelines-compliance/policies-and-guidelines/FERPA.html.) In order to adhere to FERPA guidelines, only students should submit their work to an originality detection service.
