Turnitin Instructor PDF User Guide
All Turnitin users must create a user profile. If you have previously used Turnitin, are an account administrator, or if your administrator has already added you to an account, you will already have a user profile and can skip ahead to the next section Logging In. If you are new to Turnitin and your administrator has not yet added you to an account, you need to create a profile.
Joining an Account
Your instructor homepage lists your account and any classes you have created. If an account is not listed on your homepage, you will need to join an account before you can start using Turnitin.
Creating a Class
Most of your activity at Turnitin will take place within a class or classes that you create. You can use classes (and assignments within them) to structure and organize your students’ submissions. You may have one or many Turnitin classes depending on how you choose to use the system.
Expired Classes
Each class you create has an end date. When a class reaches its end date, it expires and enters a read-only state. You and your students will not longer be able to submit papers and peer reviews to an expired class. When a class expires, it no longer appears with your active classes. To view expired classes, select expired using the pulldown on your homepage . Only those classes that are expired will be shown. If you would like, you can view all classes by selecting all classes with the pulldown. If a class has expired and you would like to make it an active class, click the class update button. From the class update screen, you can change the end date for the class.
Advanced Assignment Options
When you create a paper assignment, you can choose to view advanced assignment options using the pulldown at the bottom of the assignment creation form . With advanced assignment options, you can choose from the following Originality Report options:
1. Generate Originality Report for student submissions:
• immediately (first report is final) Reports will be generated immediately for all submissions and students cannot resubmit their papers (default).
• immediately (can overwrite reports until due date) Reports for a student’s initial submission will be generated immediately. Students can choose to resubmit their papers and receive Originality Reports as many times as they would like up until the assignment’s due date. Please note that reports are generated immediately only for a student’s first submission; reports for subsequent submissions are delayed 24 hours.
• on due date Originality Reports will not be generated for submissions until the assignment’s due date. Students can submit their papers as many times as they would like up until the assignment’s due date.
2. Choose whether you would like to allow student submissions after the assignment due date.
