A student submitted a written assignment to me by email (pass the due date on set on Canvas). How do I submit the assignment to Turnitin for plagiarism check?
@ChikNg - I teach at a community college, and I have a strict policy that all work must be submitted through Canvas. I will not accept work that is emailed to me or even submitted as a "submission comment." Every single piece of student work must be properly submitted by the student, especially if you're concerned about plagiarism.
Here's my recommendation.
Reopen the Assignment for that individual student with the +ADD function. Once the student properly submits his or her work, you will instantly know whether there are any issues.
Don't mess with "work around" solutions. Don't try to run it through Turnitin yourself. It's your student's responsibility to submit his or her work.
Hi @ChikNg ...
Do you know if your school has integrated Turnitin into their Canvas environment? It's my understanding that when you use the Turnitin LTI integration in your course, students are the ones who have to submit the assignment to you via the Turnitin interface. I'm 95% sure (though I'd be happy to be wrong) there isn't a way for you, as the instructor, to submit the student's assignment using the Turnitin LTI within Canvas. I *think* you can do this outside of Canvas, via the Turnitin website. I know that @dhulsey uses Turnitin quite a bit, so I'll defer to him for the specifics and any other suggestions he might have for you.
Hope this will help a bit. Take care...
My school has integrated Turnitin into Canvas. I will check out the Turnitin website. Thanks.
We have enabled the automatic migration of Classic to New Quizzes. When we import QTI files, though, they always fail to load as New Quizzes. If we disabled New Quiz Migration, it works. Why does it only work for Classic Quizzes? Are there any guaranteed tools that will generate QTI files that will import correctly as New…
Is it possible to change the system-wide notification defaults for a hosted Canvas instance? Since I can't find a way to do it, nor any reference to doing it, I'm assuming not but wanted to make sure before I give that as an answer.
Hi everyone, I had a teacher reach out with an odd (and concerning) LockDown Browser issue and wanted to see if others have experienced something similar. A student was taking a quiz using Respondus LockDown Browser on a Chromebook 300e Yoga G4 (8GB), a 2‑in‑1 device that can flip into tablet mode. During the active quiz,…
Hi all, Quick question about the Gradebook color status for a 2-part checkpoint discussion. If a student completes the first due date (initial post) but does not complete the required replies by the second due date, is there any way for Canvas to automatically show a color (e.g., missing/late) instead of staying as…
We have recently encountered an issue where two students were unable to see the "Take the Quiz" button. These students were taking different exams for different courses within our Testing Center. Both exams required Respondus LockDown Browser and were restricted to specific IP addresses. In both cases, the students were…
