How to view work submitted by students
Blackboard Instructors can view and mark students’ work via Control Panel > Course Tools > TurnitinUK Assignments. Then click on >> View for the Assignment you wish to view. This will display a summary of all work so far submitted.
Feedback Studio
Feedback Studio is Turnitin’s new assignment tool interface. Feedback studio offers the same functionality as the classic assignment interface, but the originality/similarity report are on the same view as Grademark. This Feedback studio demo tool is a good induction. For a full tour, please see the following video:

Rubrics and Grading Forms
Rubric scorecards can be used to evaluate student work based on defined criteria and scales. Grading forms can be used to provide free form feedback and scores to evaluate student work based on defined criteria. Instructors can create and share rubric scorecards and grading forms, allowing other instructors to attach them to assignments on their own Blackboard courses.

Grading using Turnitin for iPad
Turnitin for iPad allows instructors to mark and grade student papers with all of the favourite Turnitin features and the added benefit of grading offline. The app includes automated originality feedback and allows you to leave the following types of feedback on student papers:
- QuickMark comments with personalised comments
- highlights with comments
- bubble comments
- inline comments
- strike through text
- voice comments
- general comments
- Rubric grading.
Please note that you should not mark work on the iPad and on your PC at the same time. Only one person should have an individual student paper open at a time. Having a paper open in more than one computer or browser at the same time will result in unexpected behaviour or the loss of entered feedback.
Marking on an ipad
To mark on the ipad, you will need an access code that can be generated from within the feedback studio of Turnitin, instructions of how to use the Turnitin app are outlined below:
1. On your browser, open the originality report in Turnitin Feedback studio and click the ‘i’ button in the side panel
2. Then enter your email address and then select the Email Me button:
4. Access your email on an iOS device that has the most up-to-date version of the Feedback Studio for iOS app installed (this is important!) and select the Add Class button.
5. The app will launch with the new class added.
