Using a TurnitIn Dropbox
CTLE Online Tutorials / ANGEL Tutorials
A TurnitIn dropbox allows students to submit a paper and run an originality report to see if their paper contains any plagiarism or similarities to other student's work.
-
Once you are in the course you would like to add the TurnitIn drop box, navigate to lessons and then click “add content”.
-
Click the “TurnitIn Drop Box”
-
Review the System Requirements compatibility check (if the dialog box appears) to see if your computer is within the requirements.
-
Click “Continue to Dashboard“
-
Choose the assignment type that you would like:
-
Give your assignment a title, point value, start/end dates, and a post date.
-
Note: The Post Date is very important because it determines when students can see their papers.
Note: Grades entered in the TurnitIn dropbox area WILL transfer into the ANGEL gradebook if you configure this accordingly. This is a new feature for 2012.
-
In “Optional Settings”, make sure “Allow students to see Originality reports” is set to “yes“
- By hovering over the question mark icon for all other "“Optional Settings” you can see the descriptions and decide the best configuration for your TurnitIn dropbox.
-
Click “Submit”
-
Note: Now that the TurnitIn drop box has been created, hover over the icon and click Utilities, then Configure access settings to set User Tracking to "Everyone".
