TECH TIP: Turnitin: Plagiarism Detector and Feedback Studio
A reminder that you all have access to Turnitin for your classes. Turnitin is a plagiarism detector and it also has a full suite of tools called Feedback Studio, which gives students suggestions on grammatical errors.
These tools together can be a great part of the revision process. Turnitin can be fully integrated with a Canvas assignment or as a separate individual assignment. See me with help in setting up assignments through Turnitin.
BOOK TIP: A Monster Calls by Patrick Ness
It seems like this would be a good book for my Halloween display, but it is an incredibly powerful book of loss, love and grief. A student who I recently gave this book to told me it was the best book she'd ever read as it really resonated with her. Conor's mother is sick, and ever since she began treatments, he has the same dream every night. It is, though, in this dream, with this monster, that Conor is able to come to grips with what is happening in his life. Be sure to have tissues handy.
