  4. Set “Tool Provider” to “TurnItIn”
  5. Enter a Title
  6. Click “Submit”
  7. Set a “Category” (“ungraded”, if you like)
  8. If you are not collecting the paper through Schoology, and only want students to submit to TurnItIn, disable submission by completing this step...

Next to “Options”, click the “Submissions Enabled” icon to disable submissions. Submissions enabled on.png

If submissions are disabled, the icon will look like this Submissions enabled off.png

   9. Click “Create”
  10. Back in the Course, navigate to the assignment you just created, and click into it

11. (Important!!!) Double-Click on the TurnItIn Link. You will need to click twice to get the page to load.

  12. Once the image below loads:

a) Students will be able to access TurnItIn from the assignment link in Schoology

b) You can customize settings by clicking on “Settings”. If you then click on "Optional Settings", you will have the option to "Allow submissions of any type." This means students can upload a file, submit through Google Drive, etc. You may also "allow late submissions" which allows students to submit their work to TurnItIn after the due date.
