To support this citizenship, students are required to use Turnitin for significant written assignments is a vital component of our academic integrity policy and commitment to fostering a culture of originality and ethical scholarship. Turnitin is an online plagiarism and Artificial Intelligence (AI) detection tool that helps both students and faculty ensure the authenticity of written work. By submitting assignments through Turnitin, students are given the opportunity to review their work for unintentional similarities with other sources and make any necessary revisions before final submission. This platform provides a valuable learning experience by promoting critical thinking, research skills, and proper citation practices. Students can also benefit from the detailed similarity reports generated by Turnitin, which highlight areas that may require further attention and improvement. Embracing Turnitin as a standard practice not only helps uphold academic standards but also encourages a sense of fairness and respect among peers, ultimately enhancing the overall educational experience.
 

We believe that technology is a powerful tool that enhances learning, expands horizons, and prepares students for future success. We are proud to provide a technologically advanced environment where students can thrive and become responsible digital citizens.
