Originality Reports in Google Classroom for Students

Translate this Document

When your teacher turns on originality reports, you can check work for authenticity. Originality reports link to the detected web pages and flag uncited text.  You can run 3 reports yourself for each assignment after you have submitted your work.

  1. Click on the Classwork tab and View the Assignment summary.
  2. Click Run (#1).
  3. The pop-up window will show how many reports they have left to run on that particular assignment (#2).
  4. Click Run (#3).
  5. If anything has been flagged in the assignment by the Originality Report, a link with a time will appear below the attachment (#4). Click on that link to view the Originality Report.

Inside the Originality Report

(#1) the number of flagged passages or the percentage of the work that has been flagged

(#2) The flagged text highlighted within the assignment

(#3) cited passages in the counts

(#4) The websites that match your text
