Donegal ETB policy covering all aspects of your assessments has been UPDATED. Click the link for a handy summary of this policy.
Turnitin is a plagiarism detection and originality checking service. It compares submitted work against a vast database of student papers, websites, and published materials to identify potential plagiarism and citation errors.
In short, TurnItIn checks the originality of your work!
💡 Tip: Treat Turnitin as a learning tool, particularly Draft Coach!
💡Draft Coach Now Available in Microsoft Word
Draft Coach is now available across Donegal ETB through Microsoft Word. This tool helps you improve your writing before submitting your work.
You can:
Run up to three similarity checks per document
Use unlimited citation and grammar checks
Draft Coach is located under the Turnitin tab in the Microsoft Word ribbon. It works in the Word App and the Web version, but not directly within Microsoft Teams.
Please note: Draft Coach does not include an AI Writing Assessment.
AI tools (like ChatGPT or Copilot) can help you study — but your work must always be your own.
✅Use AI to:
Generate ideas or outlines
Summarise readings
Practise writing
❌But don’t let AI do the work for you. Always:
Check facts
Rephrase in your own words
Cite sources if needed
