Run an originality report on your work
If your teacher turns on originality reports for an assignment, you can use the reports to identify uncited content and unintentional plagiarism before you turn in your work. The reports compare your Google Docs file against web pages and books on the internet.
Your teacher can’t see the reports that you run. After you turn in your work, Classroom automatically runs a report that only your teacher can see. If you unsubmit and resubmit a file, Classroom runs another originality report for the teacher.
Originality reports are only available for Google Workspace for Education accounts set to English, French, Indonesian, Italian, Norwegian, Portuguese, Spanish, Swedish, Japanese, and Finnish. Originality reports are available on February 24, 2021, for accounts set to German, Korean, Danish, Hindi, and Malay.
