This video explains how to submit your assignment to Turnitin through your course Blackboard site.
- Submission to Turnitin - Submitting an assignment (Updated 01/19)
Turnitin
The University uses Turnitin, a plagiarism detection and prevention database which will provide feedback to you on the similarity of your work compared with a worldwide collection of resources and previously submitted student work.
We have produced some videos for you to show how turnitin is used by the University for submission of work and to give feedback and grade information.
Please be aware that you need to leave enough time to submit your assignments through Turnitin. The minimum amount of time required to complete an upload to Turnitin is about 10 minutes, but larger documents and busier times may mean the process can take over 15 minutes.
If you have a slow internet connection, this can further delay the completion of a submission.
Even if you start the upload before your assignment deadline, your digital receipt may not be generated until after. This will be classed as a late submission.
Leave plenty of time to complete a Turnitin submission - do NOT wait until the final 30 minutes before the assignment deadline.
Please note: Some of the screen grabs in the videos are now outdated. The principles remain the same, but your screen will not always look the same as those in the videos. All PDF guides have been updated January 2019.
