SafeAssign
SafeAssign is used to detect potential instances of plagiarism in a document. It serves almost the same function as the TurnItIn tool on Blackboard. SafeAssign is useful for:
Educating students about plagiarism and how to create a paper with accurately cited sources
Allowing students to submit a draft before final grading
Seeing if plagiarism has potentially been committed. SafeAssign matches, per percent, how much of a document matches with an online source and available databases.
Reviewing the sources that the student supposedly copied from, allowing insight into how plagiarism may or may not have been committed
Allowing reattempts or grade reentry through the Grade Center
