Ouriginal

The purpose of Ouriginal is first and foremost for teachers to be able to check if you are guilty of plagiarism, that is if you have copied another text without citing or if you’re too close to your sources linguistically when you’re referencing. Ouriginal is integrated in Canvas which means that your teacher can always choose to have Ouriginal review a text that you have submitted in Canvas. You can read more about how that works in the student guide.

It’s not always easy to keep track of multiple different sources during a writing process, but it’s important that you don’t submit something that you haven’t written entirely on your own. If you want to know which rules exist for a text with references and for plagiarism at Lund University, they are gathered in one single document.
