[LM_NET] HIT: alternatives to Turnitin.com

[Suzanne Faron <sfaron@ROSATI-KAIN.ORG>]

A lot more requests for a hit than actual help, but here goes:

We use MyDropBox.com. It's cheaper and about as good if your needs are
simple.

 

Hello, I looked into MyDropBox also but ended up with Turnitin.  Turnitin
does have an introductory rate and a "starter" package.  Don't rule it out
without checking it out.  We just started using it this year and hope to
have a trainer come out for an in-service next year for a more in depth
training.  We are up and running though without any difficulties.

 

There were also two suggestions about teaching proper citations and using a
search engine, but that's not what I was looking for. 

 

Thanks for your advice.
