Introduction to Digital Assessment

During your studies, you will usually have to submit assessments digitally. Here you will find guidance on the most widely used digital assessment tools at the University of Derby, which are Turnitin and Blackboard Assignments.

Please check all work you submit complies with the University’s Academic Regulations. Please pay special attention to plagiarism and other academic offences (Part J of the Regulations).

Help and support
