SafeAssignment™ is an innovative approach to plagiarism prevention, providing educators with an effective solution for checking originality and deterring plagiarism in academic environment. SafeAssignment works with papers students turn in electronically and employs a proprietary technology to identify unoriginal content, including paraphrased or otherwise altered text. After a series of comprehensive plagiarism checks, SafeAssignment generates convenient and easy-to-read reports, where all unoriginal material is highlighted and linked to its online or database sources.
How does SafeAssignment Work? Any paper turned in by students via the MyDropBox Course Management Toolset, Blackboard or WebCT can be set to be scanned by SafeAssignment. Our system uses a highly advanced algorithm to compare submitted manuscripts against the Internet Archive of over 8 billion documents, scholastic and news databases with over 9 million articles and an intra-institutional archive of previously submitted papers. Despite the comprehensiveness of the checking, SafeAssignment reports are generated in as little as 1-2 minutes. Here is how the originality detection process looks like:

The originality detection process is simple for both faculty and students and entirely automatic once the parameters of plagiarism-checked assignments have been set by instructors. Designed not only for control but also for learning, SafeAssignment can be configured by instructors to let students submit drafts of their papers and view their own SafeAssignment reports, bringing all instances of unintentional plagiarism to students’ attention. Instructors can also choose if students should be able to submit their papers only once or resubmit them as many times as necessary before the due date.
