Plagiarism Checker – Customer Feedback


We’ve asked a few assessment centres for their feedback on Ecordia’s plagiarism checker.  What’s it really like to use and how does it perform ?

  1. “I have found the system useful when checking students’ work. I like the way the system highlights specifically where plagiarism has occurred in the assignment work. It also serves as a key tool in consultations with students about their work in that they cannot argue with the evidence presented.  Overall yes, I think it is a very helpful tool and look forward to using it next year”.

  2. “The checker is working well and does appear to be outlining some issues with students’ work, so I am happy with this.  

  3. “I’ve found it extremely useful.  It only does it for Word documents that have been put on as attachments and it would be useful if it worked on written evidence typed directly into Ecordia. It is helpful identifying where the information has come from as this helps see if students are trying to be clever and use different websites. I feel this is a useful addition to the Ecordia system and would like it to remain as a feature”. – Our response:  “We are in the process of developing the plagiarism checker further to include evidence typed/copied directly into Ecordia and this addition should be available in several months’ time”.
