How do I create a Turnitin submission point in the new version of Turnitin? (staff)

Go to the module in Blackboard and click Assessment and Feedback on the left-hand menu.

Select Build Content and Turnitin Assignment

Build Content menu in Blackboard module with Turnitin Assignment highlighted

A screen will load called Launch LTI Link, before the Turnitin creation page appears

Turnitin submission point creation screen with: Title, Instructions, Enable PeerMark, Max Grade, Start Date, Due Date, Feedback Release Date. Each field has got a question mark which can be hovered over to provide further information.

Enter the assignment’s name in Title

Enter Max Grade – normally this is 100

Enter any instructions in Instructions

Enter a Start Date and Time. This is when the assignment submission point becomes available for students to submit their assignments to.

Enter a Due Date and Time. This is when students must submit their submission by.

Enter a Feedback Release Date. This was called the Post Date before but is the time and date that feedback and marks are released to students. With anonymous marking, this is also the point at which you can ascertain the authors of the assignments.

For advice on the settings that you need to select, expand Optional Settings and view our Quick Start Guide to Turnitin.

Click Submit and you will see the submission point in the area on Blackboard:

Successfully created Turnitin submission point. The icon for the new version of Turnitin is different from before
