Some written comments… Turnitin is no longer as effective as in the past because students learn how to beat the system. While the system may not be perfect, it does deter Interpretation of plagiarism to some extent. originality reports is very important and not simple. I find the Turnitin pretty user-friendly . The single figure originality score The report generated is although can be extremely misleading. complicated but in general useful. we got support and information from the Library which is very helpful .
Endnote Workshops… I benefit a lot from the endnote workshop. I really appreciate it! Thank you very much! It would be great if Hope in the future, there will be more training like this. EndNote for Mac computers Very useful workshop! I wish I knew can also be offered. the Endnote programme when I was an undergrad. I hope Endnote workshops will be held more often. It is hard to get the seat . Thank you very much!
Thank you !
