All students will upload written work to a portfolio at Turnitin.com.
Use the document below to register with the site. Students must have a password from the teacher and a class ID number. Make sure you are registering for the correct section!
Students should use the Bearworks email address assigned to them. Students can not use an email shared by another student. You may want to forward your Bearworks email to an account you check regularly, as I do use Turnitin.com to generate group emails regarding assignments. Once you have created your account, you will receive an email; please check this.
For your convenience, here are the class ID numbers and passwords.
