UQ ePortfolio system – Semester 2 2023
ePortfolios encourage engagement through drafting, reworking and feedback uptake. UQ's ePortfolio system enables the collection of authentic assessment pieces program-wide and provides a space for students to make sense of their employability development and create a professional portfolio.
Cyber security at UQ
The cyber security at UQ website provides both general and UQ-specific information on cyber security. Learn how to recognise cyber security threats, protect yourself from these threats and stay cyber secure, including how to report cyber security incidents.
iThenticate – text matching for research papers
The iThenticate text matching system for researchers is available to all UQ staff. While iThenticate uses the same underlying technology and database as Turnitin, the functionality, user experience and reports are designed to meet the needs of researchers. iThenticate allows you to quickly upload, check and examine documents using a web-based interface. Researchers can also share documents, collaborate in groups and view in-depth analytics to provide visibility of content submissions and levels of originality over time.
