Akhila,
Many plagiarism detection tools are integrated into Canvas. Unicheck is one of them. It serves more than 1.5 million students, 1,100 academic institutions, 100 thousand educators all over the world. Thus, there is a big possibility that your school is licensed for using it.
You should get to know what tool is used by your school. The general checking process is very easy if an assignment is already created in Canvas. You should choose a suitable tool in the checkbox ‘Plagiarism Review’ while submitting the research paper.
However, you should be very careful. Some plagiarism detection software has no functionality to check drafts. If you submit your paper to the system, it will be stored in an educational database of your university or school and you will have no chance to resubmit it.
Our tool Unicheck allows students to submit papers as a draft copy. It helps them pay attention to formatting mistakes, run the paper through the plagiarism checker before the final submission, and enhance it having the final look at it. In this case, your research paper will not be available in the general database.
If your school is not licensed to use Unicheck, you may review our affordable payment plans for individual users.
