PlagiarismCheck has helped us to stay on top of plagiarism in this digital age in a responsible and ethical manner. It has reduced the incidence of plagiarism issues in submitted work. A key benefit has been the ability to detect work that has been resubmitted by students. The benefits of using PlagiarismCheck over free versions online include: – Ability to check large volumes of work at once – Storage of previous samples to prevent re-use of previously submitted tasks – The ability to integrate the software with Google classroom to make submission easier
