You can use these reading categories in your class by printing out, downloading app or

listening with an audiobook

http://bookshare.org

• If you feel a student is struggling with a reading or title and you have sought the help of the Special Education Teachers – you may be interested in knowing that Bookshare was created for students with such disabilities.

• Bookshare is the world’s largest library of digital books for readers with qualified print disabilities. There are textbooks, reference materials, fiction, non-fiction and newspapers available for them.

• Colleges and universities and many high schools upload their scanned textbooks and other academic books to Bookshare.

Other Bookshare Notes

• School Organization can only download books on behalf of a student. This download can be on their own device or library computer.

• Qualified students can also obtain their own individual memberships

• Students who qualify can also have their parents download information for them at home.

• There are readers wanted, so these audio texts can be constantly updated. Perhaps a service project for students?

TURNITIN.COM - Creating a rubric

What does Turnitin check?

• Content Comparison• The Turnitin Web Crawler scans and indexes new and

existing content from the Web in the Turnitin database.• A student uploads a paper to Turnitin.com• The paper is compared to millions of

books/publications; over 24 billion web pages; and 300 million student papers.

• Results are returned in seconds, showing matches of the student paper to content from the Turnitin database.

So, what about textbooks and databases?

• When a paper is submitted to Turnitin, it is compared against three vast databases of content from three primary sources:

• The Current and Archived Web: Similar to Google and Bing, Turnitin has built a web crawler that crawls the Internet and indexes content into a searchable form. Turnitin currently contains over 24 billion web pages from the current web as well as archived web pages.

• Student Papers: Over 50 percent of plagiarism comes from other student’s work. Turnitin compares submitted papers to a database of over 300 million papers in the Turnitin paper database. Each day, the Turnitin student database grows by 190,000 papers.

• Content Partnerships: Turnitin has partnered with leading content publishers, including library databases, text-book publishers, digital reference collections, subscription-based publications, homework helper sites and books. These partnerships have contributed over 110 million additional articles to our databases.
