Turnitin upgrade on 2nd September 2014

Turnitin will be unavailable on 2nd September 2014 from 0800 to 1000 whilst we carry out a routine upgrade.

On 2nd September we will upgrade Turnitin to version 2. There are many benefits to this upgrade, including submit anything, choose your defaults and more option in the settings.

Submit anything – You will be able to allow any file type in Turnitin.

Choose your default – In the settings you’ll be able to set your own defaults that will be used each time you set up an assignment.

More option in the settings – including attaching a rubric and setting the start, due and post dates.

Additionally the tabs long to top for a submission are changing. When you click the link on the Moodle course the new version takes you straight into the submission inbox.

Please note that version 2 of Turnitin will run alongside version 1 for a period and this upgrade will not affect existing assignments. More details on the transition between plugins will follow soon.

If you have any questions about the upgrade please email ele@ucl.ac.uk and we would be happy to answer your questions or address your concerns.
