Project: Content Review
Lead(s):
Stephen Marquard
Description: Integration of plagiarism prevention services such as TurnItIn with Sakai. (See http://www.turnitin.com/static/plagiarism.htm
for more information on TurnItIn.)
This work aims to deliver a generic service API which can be used by any tool (primarily Assignments) to refer student submissions to a plagiarism prevention service. There will be a TurnItIn implementation of the service.
See SAK-7240 for implementation progress. The service API and Assignments integration are targeted at Sakai 2.4.
Some working notes are at https://www.connect.uct.ac.za/sakaiwiki/index.php/Turnitin_Integration
It should also be possible to create implementations for other 3rd-party services which work in a similar way such as Ephorus
.
TurnitIn Implementation
Development notes
For testing or developing content review implementations such as the Turnitin integration, the smallest possible build is cafe plus these modules: assignment, calendar, content-review (API and an implementation), gradebook and sections.
To create a development environment:
<module>assignment</module>
<module>calendar</module>
<module>content-review</module>
<module>gradebook</module>
<module>sections</module>
