The plagiarism tool Ouriginal has been replaced by Turnitin. The standalone environment of plagiarism software Ouriginal will be discontinued on 17 September.
Why new software?
The company Turnitin acquired Ouriginal and now only offers its own software.
What is changing?
Turnitin largely has the same functionalites but operates differently in a few ways. The most important difference is that the option to submit documents via email will no longer be available. Submitting documents must now be done via Brightspace and Osiris Case.
Changes in process final assessment
In order to complete the final assessment in Osiris Case, the submitted document must be checked for plagiarism. This is done using a Standard Osiris Case Thesis. The instructions on how to do this can be found within the Osiris Case environment regarding the Major Research Project, Profile Project, Writing Assignment and mini project.
Manuals
To support you in the transition to this new system, there are manuals available. On the website there is also information on how to deal with confidential documents or exclude a previously submitted version of a document.
Timeline and database migration
- On September 16th, the integration within Osiris Case Thesis will be transferred to Turnitin.
- From September the 17th, the Ouriginal standalone environment will no longer be available.
- On September the 18th, the last documents from Ouriginal will be migrated.
Documents can be submitted to Turnitin, both now and during the migration. However, please note the following: during the migration on September 18th, documents submitted to Ouriginal between February 10, 2025, and September 16, 2025, will be migrated. Therefore, if you submit documents to Turnitin before this date, they will not be checked against documents submitted to Ouriginal between February 10, 2025, and September 16, 2025. [PdLS(1]
