Excluding task sheet from TurnItIn

I am trialling marking assessments within Canvas and this requires me to annotate a task sheet as well. I have asked students to upload a task sheet in addition to their assessment but it is making them all appear to have high similarity. Is there a way to upload a task sheet to TurnItIn to be excluded as a means to reduce the similarity?

I used to be able to do it on our old system but cannot find a way to do it now.

Hi @NathanODONNELL,

Based on what you have described, you would need to create a second/additional assignment for only submitting the task sheet and set that assignment to not use Turnitin.

@dbrace Thanks for the suggestion. I would prefer them to be in a single submission so I can annotate them at the same time and export together for submission to the assessment authority. I was an option with safe assign back in the day

Could "Timeline Visualization" be the Key to Improving the Student Calendar?
We are all familiar with the standard Course Calendar, where assignment due dates are automatically added. However, at my institution, we structure our assignments as Challenges that develop over a period of time, rather than just a single deadline. Currently, the calendar only highlights the "end point." It would be a…
Better Submit Button UI to prevent accidental Submits Message
The current placement of the "Submit" button creates a "slip" in user behavior where habit-clicking "Next" leads to an accidental final submission. I think Canvas could easily fix this by: Moving the Submit button away from the navigation buttons (maybe above the question instead of below it) and/or Adding a "Confirm…
