Preferred tool

In the new era of learning, technology plays a fundamental role in the processes of learning for the students. With that, students always looking for a tool that can help them with their assignments. The example of tools that mostly used by students that help in preparing for their assignment is Grammarly, Turnitin, Citation Machine, Writing Ocean and many more. But, the most tools that I preferred among those are Grammarly and Turnitin and I have my own opinion about which is the best to use.

Features of the tool:

Grammarly


Grammarly is an app that can check your grammar, plagiarism, and many more. Through this app, the individual can easily detect and correct their assignment. Once a document is pasted on the app, Grammarly will automatically examine it and correct it. An example of the feature that Grammarly provides is:

1.      Spell-checking system

 


2.      Grammar-checking

 


3.      Clarity

 


The benefit that students can get this featured is the individual can easily detect their mistake and make the correction on the spot. It is because Grammarly will underline the incorrect word or grammar and at the same time it also provides the correction for it. From that, the individual not only can make their correction but also can improve themselves in spelling, grammar, and the clarities of their assignment.

 

Turnitin


Turnitin is one of the useful plagiarism and grammar detecting software. The individual just needs to upload the composed document, and it will check the percentage of duplication and correct the grammatical error in it. The individual can check their mistake base on the report provide after the document has been reviewed. The feature that provides in Turnitin is:

1. The document will highlight referenced or non-original content.

 


2. Displayed similarity percentage that shows the amount of referenced content compared to the original content.

 


3. Show the grammatical and spelling errors.

 


4. Provide citation.

 


The benefit that student can get from this feature is, they can detect their grammatical and spelling error easily as it is shown in a bracket and it also provides the correction for it. Besides, this app also helps the student and teacher to check the percentage of duplication of information that has been retrieved from another website for the assignment which shows the percentage per website. From that, the students can make improvements to the paperwork conducted. Lastly, the app also makes it easier for the student to make a citation as it has shown from which website the information from.


Conclusion

 Based on the feature already described, you can determine which one I mostly preferred which is Turnitin. The app provides more features that help students and even teachers in the teaching and learning process.
