  9. Assignments Open your class homepage and check for available assignments. Click on the “Submit” button to upload a completed assignment. The Due date for this assignment is September 14. If your teacher posted special instructions, they’ll be posted here.

  10. Preparing Your Assignment Type your assignment ahead of time in Microsoft Word or another brand of word processing software. Make note of where on your computer you saved the file. You can only submit one file per assignment. If you need citations, add them into your main document.

  11. Preparing Your Assignment Got Word? Turnitin only accepts certain file types. If you use a non-Microsoft brand of software, you must save your assignment as a .doc, .docx, or .rtf file. It’s easy: just open your paper, go to the “Save As” command in your word processor, and look for a menu to select different file types.

  12. Submitting Assignments Click on the “Submit” button to upload a completed assignment. The paper submission window will open.

  20. Getting Comments & Grades

  21. Getting Comments & Grades Once your teacher has posted grades or comments, click “View” to see them.

  22. Getting Comments & Grades You can view your Originality Report or your teacher’s GradeMark comments. You may have in-text comments from your teacher. Hold your mouse over the comments to see the full tip. You may have an overall comment from your teacher here.

  23. Getting Comments & Grades If your teacher posted a rubric, click on the grid icon here to see your scores. Your scores in different skill sets and your overall average will show up here.

  24. Understanding the Originality Report This number is the overall percent of the essay that came from other sources. Since there are both good and bad ways to use sources, the number itself doesn’t mean plagiarism has (or hasn’t) happened. This is a list of sources that had text matching your paper. Highlighted text (color coded with the source list) matched material in other sources.
