The Staff Development Committee of the Department of Business Studies has conducted a workshop on Plagiarism Policy and Turnitin software on 08/02/2018.

Dr. Nithya and Mrs. Nejida were the resource persons. Dr. Nithya explained the plagiarism policy and discussed about the consequences of violating the same. She emphasized on the need for strict adherence to the policy both by staff and students of ICT so as to enhance academic honesty and integrity.

The second speaker Mrs. Nejida explained about using ‘Turnitin’ which is an internet-based plagiarism detection software. She said that Turnitin’s formative feedback and originality checking services promote critical thinking, ensures academic integrity and help students become better writers.

Both the presentations were very informative which was followed by questions from the participants for which constructive feedback was provided by the presenters.
