It’s TurnItIn.com, not WebCT, for my Fall 2007 students

by billso on Monday, 27 August 2007

I’ve decided to use TurnItIn.com for my Fall 2007 IS 6100-EO and IS 7010-EO courses.  I con­sid­ered using WebCT, as I men­tioned on July 20. How­ever, the setup time for WebCT is more than I can handle.

Also, the new instal­la­tion of WebCT is ask­ing users the usual set of ques­tions about Java.

I’m fin­ish­ing the syl­labi today, and should have those posted the IS 6100 and IS 7010 course pages by Tuesday.

I have set up the TurnItIn.com sec­tions for each course. Stu­dents must sign them­selves into their sec­tion to turn in assign­ments and see their grades.  The appro­pri­ate course page link above has more infor­ma­tion about the signin process.

    Mr. Sode­man,

    I’ve signed up with turnitin.com and surfed it a bit. It’s new to me and it seems pretty easy to under­stand. Do you know when you will post the first assign­ment so that it can be turned in on the website?

    Thanks!

    The first paper assign­ment was posted to the course web page on Wednesday.

    I’ll set up the assign­ment drop­box in our TurnItIn.com sec­tion by next week.
