\"Information\"Turnitin is an online software Butler has purchased for use with Moodle. Turnitin allows you to check submitted student papers for plagiarism and provides you with access to advanced grading\/commenting tools for giving your students feedback. To use Turnitin, you must first create a Turnitin assignment that your students will submit their papers to.<\/em><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. From your course\u2019s main page, click the\u00a0\"Turn\u00a0button in the upper-right.<\/li>\n
  2. With editing turned on, click\u00a0\"Add\u00a0in the section where you want to add the Turnitin assignment.<\/li>\n
  3. From the menu that appears, click the\u00a0\"Radio\u00a0next to\u00a0\"Turnitin\u00a0and click the\u00a0\"Add\"\u00a0button at the bottom of the menu.<\/li>\n
  4. Enter a\u00a0\"Turnitin\u00a0and a\u00a0\"Summary\". The assignment name is how the assignment will be displayed on the course page, in the gradebook, etc. The summary is what the students will see before they submit a paper, and is useful for providing prompts or instructions.<\/li>\n
  5. Specify a\u00a0\"Submission. In most cases, you’ll want to set this to\u00a0\"File\u00a0so that students can upload Word documents, PDFs, etc.<\/li>\n
  6. Use\u00a0\"Turnitin<\/a>\u00a0to specify whether students can submit papers after the due date as well as specify what sorts of sources student papers are checked against for originality reports.<\/li>\n
  7. Click the\u00a0\"Grade\"\u00a0section to expand it. Set the\u00a0\"Grade\"\u00a0drop-down to the number of points you want this assignment to be worth and specify which\u00a0\"Grade\u00a0it will go in (if any).<\/li>\n
  8. Click\u00a0\"Save. Don’t be concerned that you haven’t set a due date yet; this occurs on a subsequent page (see the next step in the sidebar). Do not<\/span> use\u00a0\"Restrict\u00a0to set due dates! You may accidentally lock your students out of the assignment!<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
