Turnitin in Blackboard

Learn how to use Turnitin to submit assignments in Blackboard. All documents submitted to Turnitin are checked against a growing database of content and a similarity report is generated.

  • Go to the Content Area where your instructor set up the assignment.
  • Under the title of the assignment, click on 'View/Complete' .
  • From the Assignment Inbox page, click on 'submit' .
  • Title your submission.
  • Click on ' Choose from Computer '.
  • Upload your file and the click on 'Upload' .
  • After clicking upload, you will see the 'Processing' screen, with some additional information about the submission and assignment.
  • When processing is complete, a formatted preview of the first page of the submission will then display. Click on 'Confirm' to confirm your submission.
  • If you submitted your file successfully, you will see a message that reads, "Congratulations - your submission is complete! This is your digital receipt. You can print a copy of this receipt from within the Document Viewer." You will also receive an email that contains your digital receipt.

If for some reason a paper takes more than 2 minutes generate a preview (which is rare), there is an alternate method in which you can choose a couple options:

  • Cancel, and try again : You will be taken back to select a file.
  • Keep trying, I'll be back : You can leave and will be sent an email with status information.
  • Submitting a Paper
  • Interpreting the Similarity Report

Turnitin should be used as one element in a broader effort to deter plagiarism; including classroom instruction in scholarly integrity and academic skills like proper research, analysis, writing and citation. All papers submitted to Turnitin are checked in a matter of minutes against three constantly growing databases of content: A current archive of all publicly accessible Internet content (more than 5 billion pages updated at a rate of 40 million pages per day);

  • Millions of published works, including the ProQuest library research databases and tens of thousands of electronic books;
  • Millions of student papers from around the world submitted to Turnitin for other courses - including those submitted by Iona students.

Aside from integrating with BlackBoard's Grade Center, allowing students to submit papers online, and creating the Similarity Report which is Turnitin's main function, the tool offers online grading and peer review (PeerMark) which help instructors provide better feedback and engage students in the writing process.

  • In a Blackboard course, open the Content Area where you want students to access the assignment (i.e., Course Content, Assignments, etc.).
  • Click on 'Assessments' from the menu underneath the title of the Content Area.
  • Choose 'Turnitin Assignment' ' from the drop down menu. The Turnitin assignment page will open.
  • Choose 'Paper Assignment' .
  • Click 'Next Step'
  • You will now see a menu for creating a new assignment. Type in an Assignment title. Fill in a Start date, Due date and Post date (the date when students will be able see their GradeMarks in My Grades in Blackboard).
  • Select 'Allow only file types that Turnitin can check for originality' or 'Allow any file type' . Note: Students can now submit any file type to Turnitin for grading online or distributing work for peer review if Allow any file type is selected. Submission file types may include PowerPoint presentations, spreadsheets, images, html code, etc. This option is most useful for instructors who use the GradeMark function, want students to submit assignments other than papers, and do not need to generate originality reports. If Allow any file type is selected, any file that is less than 20 MB and that is less than 400 pages in length will be allowed to be submitted. If the submitted file meets the requirements for generating an Originality Report an Originality Report will be created for the file. If the submitted file does not meet the requirements for generating an Originality Report an Originality Report will be not created for the file
  • Expand the Optional settings menu to choose the options that best suit your needs.
  • Click the 'Submit' button.
  • Go into the Grade Center and check that there is now a column for the Turnitin assignment you just created.

Note: Remember to tell your students in which Content Area you created the assignment link. This is where they will submit their paper. We highly recommend you utilize the choices available to you in Optional Settings.

If you would like students to submit multiple drafts without overwriting the previous drafts/submissions, you can create additional assignments using the revision assignment type. Revision assignments are duplicates of the 'parent' assignment's advanced options and standard settings, but may have new start, due, and post dates.

  • In a Blackboard course, open the Content Area where you want students to access the assignment (i.e., Course Content, Assignments, etc.)
  • Choose 'Turnitin Assignment' from the drop down menu. The Turnitin assignment page will open.
  • Choose 'Revision Assignment' from the menu.
  • Click on the 'Next Step' button.
  • From the pull down menu labeled 'based on paper assignment' , select the assignment this revision should be based on.
  • Optional : Enter a point value for the revision assignment.
  • Select the start date, due date, and post date for the assignment.
  • Optional : Enter any special assignment instructions.
  • Select an option from the 'Generate Originality Reports for student submissions' drop down menu.
  • Two other options can be adjusted: The generate Originality Reports for student submissions The allow students to see Originality Reports?
  • Click on 'Submit' to save this revision assignment.

A typical submission made to an assignment on Turnitin generates a Similarity Report. The Similarity Report is the result of comparison between the text of the submission against the search targets selected for the assignment which may include billions of pages of active and archived internet information, a repository of works previously submitted to Turnitin, and a repository of tens of thousands of periodicals, journals, & publications. Any matching or highly similar text discovered is detailed in the Similarity Report that is available in the assignment inbox.

  • Viewing Similarity Matches

Once a Turnitin assignment is created, a column in Blackboard's Grade Center is automatically created. As you grade student submissions in the Turnitin Feedback Studio, the grades are automatically entered in the Grade Center. However, occasionally the grades from Turnitin do not populate in the Grade Center or the 'Needs Grading' icon (yellow exclamation point) does not show up in the Grade Center after a student submits content in Turnitin. In these instances, the instructor must Sync Grades .

To manually Sync Grades from Turnitin Feedback Studio to Grade Center :

  • Navigate to the Control Panel
  • From the Control Panel, navigate to Course Tools
  • Once you expand Course Tools, navigate to Turnitin Assignments
  • Click on the Sync Grades link located to the right of the name of the assignment

Please note that for assignments with anonymous grading selected, the 'Needs Grading' icon will not appear until the Post Date for submissions.

Rubric scorecards can be used to evaluate student work based on defined criteria and scales. Grading forms can be used to provide free form feedback and scores to evaluate student work based on defined criteria. The rubric scorecards and grading forms can be created by the account administrator and shared to all instructors on an account. Instructors can also create and share rubric scorecards and grading forms, allowing other instructors to upload the rubric scorecard to their classes.

You can create assignments within Blackboard and provide feedback using rubrics and annotations. Blackboard assignments offer greater support for group submissions and delegated marking than Turnitin assignments but have more limited annotation tools.

→ Click on the titles below to view information and guides on using Blackboard assignments.

Online assignments allow students to submit essays in Blackboard and provide you with the functionality to give detailed feedback to your students using annotations, rubrics and text. Click on the video below for a brief overview of how you can use rubrics in Blackboard assignments to provide detailed feedback to enhance student learning. A separate page is available for  Turnitin in Blackboard assignments .

If you are planning to use the Blackboard Assignments tool for summative online exams, we have an overview page on online exams giving general advice on using Blackboard Assignments, Tests and Turnitin for exams.

Notice regarding the SafeAssign Similarity Score : You can enable SafeAssign when creating a Blackboard assignment - this allows you to check a student's submission against the SafeAssign database of papers. The similarity score in the SafeAssign report is not a measure of plagiarism within a piece of work but represents where there are similarities to other sources (journals, essays, books etc.). A submission with a high similarity score might be satisfactory once the bibliography, cover sheet etc. are accounted for whereas a submission could have a low score but could be heavily paraphrasing other sources without citation.

Submission Guide for Your Students

An online guide for students is also available to help them with the submission process. Refer your students to the 'Student Help' tab in Blackboard (top right of the screen after logging in) to access this and other guides on using Blackboard.

Blackboard Vs Turnitin Assignments

This interactive guide gives an overview of the pros and cons of using Blackboard or Turnitin assignments.

Procedure: if a student has issues submitting we would advise them to contact the module instructor so there is a record of this and because the instructor would need to make a determination as to whether to allow an additional attempt based on the different circumstances. Clearing/resetting attempts needs to be done by the instructor of a particular module in the first instance. We also strongly recommend that if there are submission issues due to account/access problems etc. with an individual student, please accept the submission via email as proof of submission until the issue is resolved. If an instructor cannot resolve the issue themselves, the instructor can contact us for advice via [email protected]. We recommend therefore when you create an assignment to allow more than one attempt. More details on granting an additional attempt are available on the Blackboard website.

You can use the Panopto Video Assignments feature to allow students to record videos and submit them using the Blackboard assignment tool. This allows for the creation of video assignments using a streamlined workflow. When you create a Panopto Video Assignment, an associated Student Submission folder automatically gets created in your module's Panopto Folder - students cannot see other students' submissions within this folder by default.

Prerequisites:

  • Ensure you have added Panopto to your Blackboard module
  • Some prior familiarity with using the Blackboard assignment tool's workflow is recommended before incorporating the video assignments option

Video Guide:

Below is a video guide covering the steps required to create a Panopto Student Video Assignment. You can also find a text version of the instructions on this page below the video.

Instructions:

  • Go into your Blackboard module then select a folder in the left-hand menu where you would like to add the Panopto Student Video Assignment (for example, you could create a folder called Assessments and include it in there if you do not already have one)
  • Then select Assessments → Assignment from the menu bar within the folder
  • Give the assignment a name and enter instructions (refer to our Blackboard Assignments page for general advice on creating an assignment and the options that are available)
  • To convert the assignment to a Panopto Video Assignment, click on the plus button in the content editor (click on the three dots on the right-hand side if you do not see the plus button) and then from this menu, select Panopto Student Video Submission
  • This will pre-populate instructions for your students on how to create their video; you can modify these as needed but please retain the link which students will need to click on to submit their assignment
  • Continue with creating the assignment as you would otherwise (refer to our assignment guides if needed) and click Submit to finish
  • When students submit ( please see guides here for your students ), you will see their submissions in the Grade Centre and can grade them as normal - the main difference is that you need to click on the link to watch their video submissions
  • When drafting their submission, students create their videos in their My Folder (which is private to them) and can continue to edit this up until the point they click on Submit. Once they submit their video, the file gets copied into a Student Assignment subfolder within your module's Panopto folder thus preventing further editing.
  • Students can only see their own submissions - not each other's by default within the Student Submissions subfolder in your module's Panopto folder
  • The best way to grade student submissions is using the Grade Centre like you would a standard Blackboard assignment
  • Steps for your students are available in the Student Help tab .
  • Please consider the type of content that students are asked to create and be mindful of potential risks associated with the creation of video assignments. Generally, the Panopto Video Assignment option is intended for students to create recorded presentations. As a consequence, there can potentially be data protection (GDPR) or privacy-related issues if students are asked to record videos involving themselves or third-parties. Therefore, clear guidance and instruction should always be provided to students in advance of content creation. For example, avoid tasks which would lead to students creating videos containing sensitive or confidential information. Instructors should give students specific instruction regarding the recording of confidential data or special categories of personal data. Essentially, this type of data should not be recorded. For further information please see this page on Special Category Data on the Data Protection website .
  • If a student video assignment contains personal data of other individuals (e.g. visual or audio recording of a person or other identifiable information) the student should obtain permission / consent from relevant individuals in advance of recording. Permission should be obtained in a recordable format and retained on file.
  • Caution should always be exercised when recording video assignments and it may be a good idea to have students run their idea past you if it is something different to a standard presentation. Moreover, staff should review content and delete unnecessary, excessive or inappropriate data if included in a video assignment.
  • Further information is available from the College Data Protection Officer - [email protected] or via the College Data Protection website - https://www.tcd.ie/dataprotection/ .
  • Not all students will be comfortable creating and editing videos of themselves so you should consider alternative forms of assessments for those students who may not feel able to create a video.
  • The video assignment tool is provided by Panopto as part of their video hosting solution - if College ever changes to another video hosting provider (for example, as part of a tender process approximately every five years), we cannot guarantee that the new video hosting provider will have an equivalent assignment feature - however, staff would be notified well in advance of any change and workarounds may still be possible.

Terms of Use:

Please refer to our Terms of Use document for further guidelines and information on the Data Protection aspects of using the Panopto Student Video Assignment option.

Below are external links and additional resources to help you get started with Blackboard Assignments.

If you are new to using online assignments we would recommend that you create a standard online assignment as above before using some of these features as options like Delegated Marking can add significant complexity to the marking workflow.

Get Started

Setting up your Turnitin classes is easy when you know how. In just four quick steps, learn more about Turnitin's class management tools and how to get your students started. At the end of this tutorial, you can put these simple steps into practice.

1. Create Your Password

You'll need your email address and last name to create your Turnitin account password and set your security information; this information can be found in your welcome email. You can then log into Turnitin and begin customizing your account.

2. Create a Class

The creation of a class is the first step towards using the Turnitin services available to your institution. A Turnitin class groups assignments, helping you to organize student submissions. Once your classes have been created, you can start creating assignments.

  • Click the All Classes tab from any Turnitin page to direct you to the homepage
  • Click the green Add Class button
  • From the Create a new class page, select the class type, and complete the fields marked with an asterisk
  • Select the class end date

  • Once your class has been created, you will be provided with the Class ID and enrollment password, which will allow your students self enroll

3. Create an Assignment

Once your class is ready, it's time to set up your first assignment. A Turnitin assignment forms the basis of accepting student submissions. Once your assignments are set up, you start adding students to your class.

  • Click the relevant class name
  • From your class, click the green Add Assignment button
  • Enter an assignment title
  • Opt to only allow students to submit file types that generate Originality Reports or to allow any file type

  • Click Submit to add your assignment to your Turnitin class

4. Add Students

There are three routes available for adding students. You may find it convenient to add students one by one, or add a large portion of students at once by uploading a list. Alternatively, why not allow your students to enroll themselves at their own pace?

Add Students One by One

You may prefer to use this method when adding fewer than ten students.

  • Click Home from any Turnitin page to direct you to the homepage
  • From the Class homepage, click the Students tab at the top of the page
  • Click the Add Student button to the right
  • Enter the student's first name, last name, and email address
  • Click Submit to add the student

Upload a List of Students

For adding ten students or more, you may find it quicker and easier to upload a list.

  • In a Word™ or plain text file, each student should be written as: first name, last name, email address format with one student per line. In Excel™, separate the first name, last name, and email address into different cells in a column.
  • From the student list, click the Upload List button
  • Click the Choose file button and browse for the plain text, Word™, or Excel™ file that you wish to upload
  • Once the file has uploaded, click the Submit button to upload
  • Check the student details displayed on screen, then click yes, submit to add the students, or no, go back to amend the file

Allow Students to Self-Enroll

Allowing students to self-enroll can save you time.

  • Make a note of the seven-digit Class ID for the class you would like your students to join
  • Next, select the cog icon under Edit
  • From the Edit Class page, make a note of the enrollment password
  • Pass the Class ID and enrollment password to your students
  • Ensure this information is kept safe at all times
