Affordable Moodle Plagiarism Product that Works with Discussion Boards

by Vanessa Pierce 1 year, 2 months ago

ECC is looking for an affordable plagiarism product for Moodle that works with discussion boards. Safeassign does not support discussion boards and TurnItIn is too expensive for the number of courses we will use the product in.

Thanks in advance for your recommendations !

Hi Vanessa,

Have you checked with Turnitin recently for the Similiarty option? We purchased Turnitin Similarity for approxmiately $2,100 per year in a three year contract. Just three years ago we did not have this option and the cost was over $6000 anually. With the availability of the Similarity product the cost has become more reasonable and met faculty needs at the moment.
