      • Assignment Checker


        At Gower College Swansea, assignments are often put through Turnitin software to check that the work you are submitting is your own work.  If you are worried or would like to check your work BEFORE submitting the final piece of work, you can do so here. Please check with your Tutor as to what is an acceptable percentage of similarity.

        • You must be logged in to submit an assignment to Turnitin.

          What if your file doesn't upload?

          You may have made a submission that Turnitin doesn't support. Typically, this happens in the case of an image or a scanned file. If you are trying to submit a PDF file, it needs to be created from a text document. Tunritin does not accept PDFs in image format. In order to test whether your PDF is a text document, open it in Adobe Acrobat and click on the Select Text option at the top of the screen. Proceed to highlight the text of your document with your mouse (these options may vary with PDF-reading programs other than Adobe Acrobat). If you are not able to highlight any text, your PDF is an image and does not contain text.
