Learn How To Understand Geometry With 2024‘s Top 9+ Best Online Geometry Courses & Classes https://skillscouter.com/online-geometry-courses/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=online-geometry-courses https://skillscouter.com/online-geometry-courses/#respond Sun, 02 Aug 2020 13:53:02 +0000 https://skillscouter.com/?p=4165
Best Online Geometry Courses & Classes

If you are seeking the best online geometry courses in 2024, you’re in the right place!

Below, you will find a wide range of geometry classes for primary, high school, or even college students. Also, if you are generally curious about geometry, you may also benefit from these courses!

Many of the below beginner classes cover aspects of Geometry from perimeter and area of shapes, transformations of figures, interior and exterior angles, three-dimensional geometry, and more!

If none of those words mean anything to you (including myself), don’t worry, these lessons will help you understand them in no time! Let’s get started!

Top 9 Best Online Geometry Courses & Classes 2024


1. Geometry Fundamentals (Brilliant.org)

Geometry Fundamentals - Brilliant Org

Let’s start with a geometry fundamentals course from Brilliant.org. If you haven’t heard of Brilliant, they teach high school and college-level math, science, and coding through highly visual online courses and daily puzzles on trending topics.

This course will introduce you to angle axioms, perimeter and area calculation strategies, coordinate geometry, 3D geometry, and more. If you’re just getting started with learning geometry, this is the right course to start with. And you’ll want to make sure you have a bit of basic algebra under your belt, otherwise, you’ll want to brush up before diving in.

Once you’re into the course, you’ll start from the basics and become a proficient problem solver in everything from angles and lengths to area and volume. You’ll even get into the Pythagorean theorem and coordinate geometry. And to make it interesting, Brilliant.org presents its information through creative animations to ensure you move past rote memorization by truly mastering the underlying concepts.

Beyond this fundamentals course, Brilliant has an entire geometry track including:

Brilliant.org is a subscription program giving you access to their full 60+ subject catalog. You can push the monthly price down by selecting their annual or lifetime subscriptions options.

2. Online Geometry Tutors (Princeton Review)

Online Geometry Tutors - Princeton Review

Next up is an interesting concept I found in researching this article from test prep experts at Princeton Review. They’re not offering yet another online course. Instead, they have on-demand tutors that you can connect with whenever you have trouble with your stumped-on a problem or cramming for a test.

I included this because many times it’s not that you need a course to learn, but rather need help to ace the course you’re already taking. And these top-notch instructors are available to help 24/7, which is good because we know that high school students sometimes have demanding schedules which can lead to off-study times. And to make it extra convenient, there’s no appointment needed, meaning you get the help exactly when you realize you need it.

You might not have known that Princeton Review offered academic support online since they’re better known for the PSATSAT, and ACT testing prep courses. But they bring the same quality of instruction to help you get higher grades as they do to get higher test scores. And right now, they have a free trial to try out their geometry tutors with no risk.

Best Free Plagiarism Checkers

If you are looking for the best free plagiarism checkers in 2024 that are ACTUALLY FREE. You’re in the right place!

And when I say free, I really mean it! Zero. Nada. Zilch!

To test these plagiarism checkers, I have created a piece of unique content with some plagiarised text, so I can actually see how these free services perform.

So whether you are a student or a teacher, you are bound to find a service down below that will make your life easier, while also saving money!

How I Ranked These Free Plagiarism Checkers

Quickly just before I get stuck into this list, I will briefly explain how I scored each of these tools.

Below is an article that I have uniquely written (represented in BLACK) with some inserted plagiarised text (represented in RED).

plagerism document Top 11+ Best Free Plagiarism Checkers For Teachers & Students

In total, there are 450 words in this “test post” with 350 words being unique and 100 words being plagiarised.

When doing some simple math, 22.22% of this document is plagiarized, which is what I will be using as a benchmark. So ideally, a score of 22-23% is what I am aiming for.

Top 11+ Best Free Plagiarism Checkers For eLearning Professionals In 2024


1. SearchEngineReports 

Screen Shot 2020 07 22 at 9.57.16 am Top 11+ Best Free Plagiarism Checkers For Teachers & Students
  • Plagiarism detected: 25%
  • Searches: Unlimited
  • Percentage shown: Yes
  • Word limit: 2,000 words per search
  • Price: Free

First on my list is SearchEngineReports.net which is a surprisingly great free tool that doesn’t get much attention.

From my testing, I received a plagiarism score of 25% which is incredibly close to my initial benchmark. SearchEngineReports also uncovered all of the inserted text that I added. But I’m not sure why it was scored higher at 25%.

Like any good plagiarism checker, SearchEngineReports shows percentages of unique/ copied text and links to matched sources. They also have the ability to upload from Dropbox, copy in text, check plagiarism from a URL, detect plagiarism in 16 different languages, and of course uploading multiple file formats.

As for the limits of the number of documents you can check… there is none! The only limitation is that there is a 2,000-word limit that can be checked at one time. So for teachers grading essays, homework, projects, and short stories, this is a great pick!

Pros
  • Very accurate 
  • Unlimited amount of checks
  • Online interface
  • 16 different languages
  • Shows percentages

  • Searches: 5
  • Percentage shown: Yes
  • Word limit: 500
  • Price: Free

Next on my list is Quetext, which from my testing, was the most accurate free tool that I used. When testing the platform, I got a plagiarism score of 23%, which is incredibly close to the actual score of 22.22%.

What I also liked is that it gave me citations and links to the plagiarised text in the document.

After a bit more digging into the tool, I found that they are using “DeepSearch Technology” which doesn’t only look at exact matches in Google, but also surrounding context, swapped out words, books, journals, forums, and papers.

As for the downsides of Quetext, the free version only allows for 5 tests/ searches per day and you will have to sign up for a free account. So for heavy users such as teachers, this may not be the best tool for grading high volume.

But if you are looking for a free plagerism checker that does an incredible job at detecting coppied text, this is a phenomial free plagiarism checker.

Pros
  • Incredibly accurate 
  • Online interface
  • Shows percentages
  • Shows plagerised matches

Moving onto my next pick is PlagiarismDetector.net which is another great tool for uncovering stolen, or copied text. From my tests, I received a plagiarism score of 28% which is quite close to my original score.

However, only around 80% of my inserted copied text was detected. For the rest, it detected plagiarism from my uniquely written content which was quite strange. While this is not a perfect score, it still did do an OK job at finding a majority of plagiarized text.

Like the other tools in this list, PlagiarismDetector.net also allows you to upload from Dropbox, view cited plagiarized links/ websites/ research papers, percentage scores, ability to upload multiple file formats, and DeepSearch AI.

Users also have the ability to do an unlimited amount of reports per day, however, this is limited to only 1,000 words per search. Nonetheless, still a great free plagiarism tool for teachers, students, webmasters, and editors.

From my testing, Copyleaks was able to detect a 24.7% identical match, with 1.5% showing related and minor plagiarism. So from my original benchmark of 22.2%, it did extremely well and even showed some accidental paraphrased content.

As for the limitations, Copyleaks only allows you to search 10 pages totalling 2,500 words per day. But for light users who wan’t to scan the od document, this is agreat free onlie plagerism tool.

  • Shows percentages
  • Shows plagiarized matches
  • Support for 100 languages

PlagScan÷≥÷

  • Plagiarism detected: 25.4%
  • Searches: 1
  • Percentage shown: Yes
  • Word limit: 2,000 total
  • Price: Free

Next on my list is another great tool for detecting plagiarism with great detail. From my testing, PlagScan was able to detect my inserted copied text with great accuracy, 22.3% to be exact.

However, they also showed me some additional results relating to golf and biology, which had nothing todo with the article that I had written.

While PlagScan delivers a great tool for detecting cheating, there are some severe limitations for their product. This includes a one time only search for 2,000 words. After that, you will have to purchase credits for further documents/ searches.

Moving onto my free plagiarism checker is SmallSEOTools, which is a simple online plagiarism detector that scrapes Google and shows exact matches. Just like many of the other tools on this list.

While I have actually used this tool a lot in the past, it seems that the quality of results is starting to drop. After doing my test, it only came back with a plagiarism score of 11% when compared to my original benchmark of 22.2%.

When it comes to the benefits of SmallSEOTools, they allow an unlimted amount of searches, 1,000 word limit, check plagerism from specific URL’s, intergration with Grammerly, and the ability to upload various files as tex, .rtf, .pdf, .docx, .txt, and .odt.

What Constitutes As Plagerism?

While many think of plagiarism as copying someones text and representing it as your own, there is more to the story. In total, there are 6 different types of plagiarism which include:

  • Paraphrasing: Re-wording someone’s work without recognition or citations
  • Global: Submitting an entire assessment/ paper which belongs to someone else
  • Citing incorrectly: Not giving or incorrect citing of someones work
  • Verbatim: Copy and pasting sentences, paragraphs, or pages from websites, journals, books, or papers
  • Mosaic: Combining work from multiple sources and not citing references
  • Self-plagiarism: Recycling or repurposing your existing work into new submissions

How Do Free Plagiarism Checkers Work?

Traditionally, plagiarism detection tools will take the text of a document and break it up into bite-sized chunks (usually broken down into sentences). From there, these tools will do automated searches for these sentences, and then show a report of any identical results on Google.

This system is quite flawed as it typically does not show reworded results, or results from journals, books, and magazines.

Fortunately, there are new technologies used by plagiarism tools such as DeepSearch, which uses algorithms and AI to further detect copied, or uncited content.

Are Free Plagiarism Checkers Any Good?

In short, yes and no. At the end of the day, these are free tools, so there will be limitations that can’t be worked around. Typically, these limitations come in the form of heavily advertised websites, capped searches, and also word limits.

However, if you are a student, business, webmaster, or teacher that is looking to check a couple of documents, assessments, or even a resume. Free plagiarism tools can be a great place to start.

To further your skills for assessments, or writing a resume, check out my guide on the best free online writing classes!

Can You Trust Free Plagiarism Tools?

In most cases yes. With the introduction of GDPR and strict guidelines for webmasters, plagiarism checkers also have to adhere to these rules. However, there have been some reports of free tools that sell on the uploaded text to third parties.

Conclusion

From my testing, I found Quetext and SearchEngineReports to be the most accurate tools for detecting plagiarism. From my comparisons, they were able to detect 23% of copied text from a document that had 22.22% plagiarized text.

Learn How To Get Great At Arithmetic With 2024‘s Top 11+ Best Online Math Courses & Classes https://skillscouter.com/online-math-courses/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=online-math-courses https://skillscouter.com/online-math-courses/#comments Thu, 30 Apr 2020 00:58:09 +0000 https://skillscouter.com/?p=2529
Best Online Math Courses

Some people seem to have a natural affinity for math. If that’s you, great! Others, however (like myself), may struggle from time to time with certain concepts or procedures.

Because of this, I have curated this guide on the best online math courses in 2024 for complete beginners all the way through to advanced.

Some of the topics covered in these courses are basic adding, multiplying, division, subtracting, fractions, percentages, algebra, and heaps more! Let’s get started!

Top 11+ Free Best Online Math Courses, Classes & Certificates 2024


1. Mathematical Fundamentals (Brilliant)

Mathematical Fundamentals Brilliant Learn How To Get Great At Arithmetic With [year]'s Top 11+ Best Online Math Courses & Classes

I have to start our list with Brilliant.org. They are pretty new to the game, but they are changing how kids and adults can learn math online.

Here is what sets them apart. First, they have an in-depth curriculum that starts as early as middle school algebra and moves all the way up through the advanced mathematics more common in university. Think Statistics, Quantitative Finance, and Differential Equations. So if you like this platform, it can grow with your student.

Second, the visual simulations are both beautiful and unlocking. Instead of learning math through brute force repetition and memorization, they take you on a journey with smart visuals that teach you increasingly complex concepts you can then apply to solve problems. Each visual builds on the next with understanding checks at each point.

This is so much less frustrating than parents who learned “the old way” trying to teach kids who are learning “the right way.” I’m looking at you, Common Core. And you Singapore Math.

But seriously, this process helps build a real STEM intuition that will help kids excel in today’s increasingly technical world.

Finally, there is instant feedback, so you know if you nailed the concept. And if you didn’t, the explanations offer another angle to help you understand. I know at least one middle-schooler who liked seeing the percentage of other students that got each problem right or wrong. There is nothing like a little daily gamification to keep school-aged kids locked into learning.

You can get started on the platform for free by registering with an email. This will give you access to the basic math courses, as well as science and computer science. You can also upgrade for access to their full library of courses and get 20% as one of our readers.

Given you can start for free, and so many families are looking for supplemental help with math, we think it’s one of the best online math classes for kids available today. We’ve also done an in-depth review of Brilliant if you want to learn more.
