Checking assessment evidence with Turnitin

The Turnitin checker can be used within an Assessment or the Assessment Evidence page.

Uploaded evidence can be sent to Turnitin using the steps below:

1. Access a learner's portfolio
2. Open the Assessment or Assessment Evidence page
3. Scroll down to the Evidence files
4. Click Turnitin Checker - The button will change to Awaiting results
5. Once completed, Awaiting results will change to Similarity score: %
6. Click Similarity score: % to be taken to Turnitin and check the results

At the moment, only PDFs and Word documents can be sent to Turnitin and the check usually takes around 1 day.

If the check fails 3 times the user will be provided with an warning message and a reason.
