### **Presentation for Doctoral Students on Using Turnitin for Reviewing and Plagiarism Checking**

Doctoral students who register will receive access to their own private Turnitin environment. They will be taught how to use Turnitin to check their own texts for plagiarism, as well as how to receive automated feedback using the ETS e-rater tool.

The session will cover how doctoral students can set up their own Turnitin assignments, with or without a supervisor, and demonstrate the key settings. Among other things, it will show how to work with text within Turnitin without it being stored in Turnitin’s database—because no author wants publishers to find matches to unpublished work at the point of publication.

The emphasis is on access, setup, settings, plagiarism checking, and the ETS e-rater tool.

The ETS e-rater grammar tool is part of the Feedback Studio software. It is useful for anyone writing in English. The system automatically checks grammar, word usage, structure, style, and spelling. It provides automated feedback that can be used to improve the text. The system can process up to 64,000 words.

The presentation is part of the *Doctoral Student Toolbox* by the Graduate School. For more information, contact Toby Erik Wikström, Project Manager at the Graduate School ([[email protected]](mailto:[email protected])).
