Will I get a report telling me whether my paper was plagiarized?
Maybe, this is up to your instructor. Talk to your instructor about this if you have any questions.
If you do receive a report...
Technically, you will not receive a report that says "Yes, this paper was definitely plagiarized!".
You and your instructor will both have an active web link in your Turnitin accounts to an "originality
report". This report notes any similarities between your paper and papers in an immense and growing
database hosted by Turnitin.com. This "originality report" merely aids the instructor when she
or he senses that the originality of a paper is questionable.
