Module 5-1: Using Turnitin.com
Module 5-2: A Table of Specifications (Test Blueprint)
Reflection:
Turnitin.com provided me with a window into formatting documents and proper citations. I felt very threatened by this web based software,
and realized that my students must feel much the same way. I feel that, like any tool, one must supplement learning and not
use it as a replacement. Mastery in teaching suggests that we find ways in which to make our jobs more efficient, but not
at the expense of the human contact.
I believe that Turnitin.com has its place in education. I don't, however, believe that it should be the sole basis for judgment
in every single case. I will use this information to educate my students and reinforce copyright laws. I am also reminded
that I must be clear in my citations and formatting in order to correctly provide credit to others' work.
