Student Induction test dropbox
A test dropbox is available in the Student Induction space. Submit to generate a report before submitting to the unit dropbox.
- Access the Student Induction Space
- Submit to the Assessment Dropbox
- Go to the Dropbox - Originality Check, to view the report
See Submitting Assessments to Dropbox - Originality Check to learn more.
You can upload a document to the Student Induction space to obtain an originality check score indication before submitting to the unit dropbox in the unit you are taking. When submitting an assignment in that dropbox, by default your document will be deleted and not indexed. However, when viewing the Originality Report, there is an option to “Opt-out”. It is very important that you do not select this option, or the following option “Do not delete my document". This will make your submission matchable against itself when submitting to another dropbox. A 100% match back to your first submission could occur.
