Urkund is an automatic text-recognition system made for detecting, preventing and handling plagiarism.

Tick the box

If your teacher has activated Urkund for an assignment you will see a checkbox when you upload your file. You need to tick the box in order to assure that the work you are submitting is your own.

See the analysis (if your teacher allows it)

See the Urkund result

Your teacher might let you see your Urkund result in order for you to better understand and correct mistakes. If this is the case and the analysis is done you will see a coloured tag if you go to Grades and look for your assignment in the list. Click the tag to see your analysis.

If the analysis is pending there will be a little clock indicating that you have to wait for a while. An Urkund analysis can take up to 24 hours.

This is what an analysis might look like:
