I have a teacher reporting that she cannot grade the Turnitin LTI assignment in Canvas. She receives an error stating "The membership service has encountered some errors." Has anyone experienced this? If so, what was the issue?
Hi @StacyRoeming ...
Looks like Turnitin has had some issues the last couple of days. I replied to another posting a bit earlier with the following information:
I know that Turnitin has their own status page. In looking at that status page, it looks like they've had some significant issues in the past day or two which has caused potential issues like you are describing.
System Status (turnitin.com)
If you roll your mouse cursor over the red lines for "2 Nov 2023" for areas like Turnitin.com and Turnitin Paper Submissions, there is a link for "Service Incident 2 November". Clicking on a link like that takes you to this page:
Turnitin Status - Service Incident 2 November (statuspage.io)
In reading through this, my guess is that you happened to try and access Turnitin during the time they were experiencing issues. Hopefully all is well now, but you might also want to sign up for their e-mail alerts when things like this occur. Here's a link for you:

I hope all these resources will be of some help to you. Sing out if you have any other questions...thanks!

If I right-click on it, the actual points appear, but then disappear after…
With the new SpeedGrader UI, we are seeing student names appear in the page title even when the “Hide student names” setting is enabled. When using Classic Quizzes, there is no option within the quiz settings to enable anonymous grading, so we rely on instructors using the hide student names setting in SpeedGrader to…
Speedgrader chaning file name when being downloaded. Speedgrader: When downloading a submitted assignment, the file name is being changed to an unrecognizable name — (Student's actual name was part of the file name — changed for privacy.) Ideas???
This is my first time using the new discussion "checkpoints". I'm hoping the multiple due dates are effective, but using the "checkpoints" does seem to create other problems: They only allow for ONE "reply to topic". The way I use discussions in some of my classes is to allow for students to ask MULTIPLE questions per…
I tried the Quick Reassess feature today. Once I approved the questions and created the assessment it went to the tracker for Block 1. But I can't find the new assessment in my assessments to add to Blocks 2 & 4. If I have to recreate for each class, they won't have the same questions. I also cannot find the option to…
