Online text assignment submission with plagiarism prevention link

Plagiarism is when a student submits content they have copied and the real author was not given credit for the words. Plagiarism prevention detects when this form of cheating or academic dishonesty has happened.

Moodle doesn't come with any pre-installed plagiarism prevention methods - they need to be added by a site administrator. See Managing plagiarism prevention for details.
