They quoted my work with websites I never even used.

I submitted my daughter's assignment to her professor. However, the professor emailed her stating that the assignment was in the wrong format and gave her a score of 10/100. I encouraged her to email him and ask for the opportunity to resubmit the assignment in the correct format. Unfortunately, the professor responded by refusing to regrade the assignment or consider a resubmission. A week later, my daughter received a letter from the Dean stating that the professor had reported her for academic violation. He accused her of using AI to write her paper, despite previously stating that the paper was in the wrong format and that he would not regrade it. Additionally, he accused her of plagiarizing, which was my error. It's confusing as to why he reported an assignment that was not intended for grading. I used a website to analyze some writing exercises, including emails from the professor, and most of the incorrect samples, including the professor's email, were flagged with 96% or above AI-generated information. According to the report, my daughter's paper was 55% AI-generated. My daughter uses Grammarly, which is offered by her school. Now I have to take the time to prove that she did not cheat..

unreliable, match simple everyday words, professional lingo, so basically anything, then flag then as plagiarism

It is a very unreliable source for the school and teachers to compare with other students' work. This Turnitin system compares words and phrases that are common in everyday language. Also, even take into consideration as plagiarism the title of the assignment and references. I do not know why academic teaching uses it as a reference to look for plagiarism when it is very unreliable.

Computer turnes off every minute for inactivity and this crappy TURNITIN closes your test bc it thinks you are cheating. Complete waste of time schools should not use this.

if i could give this ridiculous thing less than 1 star i would. it is causing me to fail assignments due to "too high a plagiarism percentage" but it literally will highlight RANDOM WORDS AND PHRASES. i've recently done an assignment based on myself how on god's green earth do i get 40% plagiarism?! its ridiculous, untrustworthy, and causing students to fail. it's massively unreliable and COMPLETELY AND UTTERLY USELESS. this stupid thing needs to be gone.

I have been accused that my English task is 48% written by AI but it is not. Now I need to rewrite my task!

trash service that school use for writing instead of google docs.
