As a current academic who uses Turnitin regularly, I find it works fairly well. There are a lot of false positives, but it also regularly identifies actual plagiarism for me.
- DonsDiscountGas 2y ago"lots of false positives" Maybe this is okay when we're talking about plagiarism and you can review manually, but humans can't reliably identify LLM written text
- michaelmior 2y agoTotally agreed. I'm personally only relying on it to identify cases of material which was directly (with minimal changes) copied from a third party source without attribution.
- sabbaticaldev 2y agoFor what’s worth (for you) the results would be the same if it identified all of them as plagiarism
- michaelmior 2y agoNo, it would definitely not. There are a number of false positives, but significantly less than all submissions. It also specifically highlights areas of concerns along with a cross-reference for me to review. I would not be able to do all this manually.
- Ekaros 2y agoIt is a tool like anything else. From student perspective I perfectly understood reasoning for it and how useful it would be when person doing review actually cares. Being able to easily find most obvious things and then cross-reference is very useful. Problem comes when users do not care and blindly just believe in percentage value and some threshold
